My brother just bought me a TWSBI Eco as he uses one himself. So grateful for the gift, can't wait for it to come in!

Vac 700 with Omas turquoise.

Have many nice pens in rotation, also demonstrators, all waiting to get back into the DC pouch but whenever I want to brighten my day the Vac somehow just stands out.

Current vintage daily users: Aurora 98p, Big Red Lucky Curve, MB622, P51, P75, Pelikan NN400.

My brand new TWSBI Diamond 580 Red & Blue with Medium nib and Pilot Iroshizuku Kon-Peki. This is a stunning combination!

ECO looks beautiful with that ink and you have captured it very nicely. Edited by prashant.tikekar

Along with a quartet of "Imperial" range Sheaffers I keep three Minis and one Vac-Mini inked and jump among them based on whim. Some of the Minis have replacement nibs. All eight pens work fine for me. The Vac-mini had flow problems until I removed the shut off gasket and now it seems fine. I also keep a Pilot Stella 90S/Stargazer inked for a total of nine. I carry one of the Sheaffers or TWSBIs daily and make sure to scribble a few lines with all of the pens every second or third day.

My Vac Mini arrived today. I filled it with Noodler's Heart of Darkness ink and am running it through its paces.

Diamond 580AL Lava, medium nib, with Diamine Autumn Oak. Really stands out on the pages here at work without being too bright. It's easier on the eyes than say, Apache Sunset. Only had a sample of it so I'm going to buy a small 30ml bottle from Goulet. Beautiful ink

TWSBI Micarta, medium, just bought today! One of the last two in the shop. Came with a free notebook. Absolutely loving it. Looks and feels amazing. Solidly built and writes beautifully. Very happy as they are discontinued for some reason, I'm not sure why as I think they are the best of the lot.

      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

      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!

      @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
