Do you bake it to make it keep it's shape?

 

We haven't tried that, but I think just letting it harden in the air might be enough. We'll have to test that...

I remember making play dough like that in elementary school for some kind of science project. Lots of fun.

I'd say the recipe sounds right. I tasted it in pre-school and distinctly remember spitting it out due to the ridiculously salty taste.

Quite true! The fragrant and enticing aroma of cherry, fruit punch or orange is purely for the nose --with no sugar, unsweetened Kool-Aid is a cruel disappointment!

The ones we made as a kid were flour, salt and water and then you baked them at 325. I didn't know if the Koolaid, or oil made a difference to baking, but it seems like it shouldn't.

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

I mixed -what I call- 'homebrew Twilight' with Parker Blue and SuSeMai Magic Casmere, which was supplied to me by Amber. It looks like this, and this color-in envelope came with the ink:

Mike - please share the exact recipe for this wonderful ink color - I'd like to replicate it, or at least approach it, even knowing the magic Susemai will be its own color... It reminds me a lot of one of the new-to-me Diamine Twilight which I just received... and find absolutely wonderful.

Hi, Sorry I'm a tad late. I had the 'formula' at work.

For this ink I used:

Parker Blue 9 parts

and Magic Cashmere 2 parts

the Magic is mixed wet 35ml of water on the 4g baggie

The Susemai inks are perfect for mixing other colors and improving performance.

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      @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
