Took the photo with my phone and posting from same (everything on the phone. Why is it called a phone?). Resized it, but it looks huge on my phone's screen.

 

The photo, taken yesterday, is already out-dated. The Heki tamenuri Piccolo has a Nakaya (not Nakata) F nib, and the Kuro tamenuri Piccolo has a Platinum 3776 UEF nib.

 

As of today, I put a Platinum [3776] Bounce gold-plated steel EF nib in the Kuro. Looks almost identical but writes a super fine line. I love it!

Didn't know about the 1936 and can't find it on their site. Could you show me the whole pen? and would you tell me if this pen can be bought anywhere? many thanks!

I recognise that we are sharing the same preference for very fine nibs!

Pelikan 101N, EEF nib

I love your handwriting! Super fine or stub or flex, a fountain pen in your hand is a beautiful instrument. Love your drawings, too, in your "What's Up...?" thread.

 

My super fine or extra fine nibs are very stiff, so I don't get the line variation that you do. But even with flex nibs, I still don't have the hang of it. You definitely have the skill!

That's a lovely set of nibs Cyber6. Be careful with the 149. The nibs look pulled out farther than normal. The 149 should be harder to see as close to being in the section if not in it.

If you want less blah, blah, blah and more pictures, follow me on Instagram!

      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
