I was super interested in this, as I don't own any noodler's pens. Apparently the drop ended early due to high demand and I missed it. :( Maybe next time?

Christina, sorry to read you missed it. I get Massdrop via email and try to post as soon as possible something I think others would be interested in. This one was posted before there was even one person signed up for the drop. Sometimes, as in the Franklin-Christophe 2 pen case and other offerings, they have had so much interest in an item, they repeat the drop. Will keep a look out, don't be sadden yet, there may be another chance in your future. :)

Out of the 100 units limited, I got in at 99.

It'll be fun fiddling with them trying to get the flow just right...after the endless "drop off Dawn dish soap" rinses--to wash the manufacturing oils off of the nib and feed...while holding my nose, so I don't get nauseous from the nasty bakelite smell...

Yay!?

I am so thrilled for you. I was feeling kind of bad for those who were interested and yet were too late. You give me a smile to know someone of our community got in on it and will be getting their Noodler's Demonstrators. I just purchased a red Noodler's Ahab Demonstrator and love it! Enjoy. Also, if you don't already know, go to Youtube, where there are a couple of people who have videos on Noodler's pens, regarding various aspects. Several of them even use the clear demonstrator for demonstration. In regards to the smell, currently have an old Bexley America the Beautiful, which has a really foul smell. It had a different one when I purchased it years ago, now it is just foul. Both my Noodler's hardly have a smell at all in comparison.

Thanks for the tips, but I know these pens all too well, although it's been a little while since I've subjected myself to the torture. But, hey, what can I say? I think I've always been just a little masochistic...especially after lighting a match or a lighter, and waving it very lightly under the nib (another way to take care of those persistent manufacturing oils--by burning them off), and then touching the back of my hand with the match...oh, yeah...I can't wait to get these bad boys in the mail.

Bring it!

There is a place on the right side of their page where you can request this drop to be repeated. When it comes back up they will send you an e-mail.

Although there is no guarantee it will be at the same price, but if you google for the pens you can quickly tell if it's a good price.

 

Best of luck.

I just went and hit the request button. I'm not sure I want one myself, but I'm willing to help the folks who do!

Alright, I gots mine in the mail today.

But I came home too late to fiddle around with them...I need a good, uninterrupted, hour to beat these bad boys into submission.

Tomorrow, the fun begins!

      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

      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
