Since Cam suggested the idea, I thought I'd give it a place to grow. Should anyone come across an Esterbrook thread that appears to be suitable for relocation to the Esterbrook forum, why not post a link to it here, and we'll see about moving it.

 

For Example:

https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/in...indpost&p=22499

https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/in...indpost&p=19347

https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/in...indpost&p=19022

https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/in...indpost&p=16860

https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/in...indpost&p=10221

https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/in...indpost&p=10500

https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/in...findpost&p=9779

https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/in...findpost&p=8658

https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/in...findpost&p=7425

https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/in...findpost&p=5741

https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/in...findpost&p=5291

Repair

The question re posts to the repair forum is whether they are better off there, or in the Estie Forum. That would depend on the post I guess. Any comments on the following?

Hi Gerry,

 

I think the repair threads should stay in the Repair forum for easy access.

 

Denis.

 

Edit : I moved the other threads :)

Now, let's just pick up those threads and get down to our sewing. ;)

Could you or Brian please take a peek and see if some/all of them should be moved to the new Esterbrook Forum?

Thanks!

Sure Maja, although we'll have to wait until Admin does it - I don't think our moderator powers extend to other fora, so while we can move posts in this forum, we can't get posts from other fora. <_<

 

The only one I would hesitate on is the first - since the eBay reference is expired the best part (the item itself) is no longer visible leaving the reader wondering what the discussion is all about.

 

Nevertheless, it is Esterbrook, and I suppose if it is going to be anywhere, it might as well be here, right?

 

So Denis - one more time perhaps?

 

Thanks,

 

Gerry

I was wondering about that first thread too, Gerry; I didn't check the Ebay link but I think after 'X' number of months, the auction disappears into the Internet ether!

Well, just keep on posting the little threads, and we'll move them all, I guess :D.

I've got an Estie too, btw, a red one... :D

 

Warmest regards, Wim

I *knew* you were one of us Wim.

 

Congratulations.

 

Maybe we should have voted for an Estie nib for the FPN LOGO... :D

      Bits and bobs to bring with me to in-person meets

      By stylographile · Posted

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast.

      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
