Hummm...

 

Gap between tines seems to be too wide...

 

:lol:

These are apparently also going to be available at the new pen shop in Pittsburgh, Birmingham Pens (the new B&M store that used to be fountainpens.com).

Very cool. I bought a package of squirrel shaped paper clips. These would be another interest of mine!

Very cool! I think I'd like them better if the nib pointed downward, but I still intend to get some. ;)

Humm, I might have to have some of those. They are precious!

If your out-go is more than your income,

 

Then your up-keep.

 

May be your Down-falll!!!

And they're big and sturdy enough to actually be useful. I picked up a package of cat-shaped ones last year when I was at Wonder Pens in Toronto, and while those clips are really cute looking, they're sufficiently small and have a fine enough gauge of wire to be not much good for actually holding a lot of papers together (although I suspect that they'd make fine bookmarks... ;)).

      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
