I am new to FPN as of today. Google led me to your site when I decided to see if I could get an Inoxcrom that I bought in France 8 ish years ago to write again. Back then I had no clue what a fountain pen really was or how to take care of it. Still no clue what the pen is other than an Inoxcrom that will use standard cartridges. A good soak managed to clean out the old ink and it seems to be working fine. Let the fun begin!

It is a beautiful pen, it is a shame it was not used all along. May you enjoy your re-found pen and your time in FPN.

Hello MariaAntonia,

 

Welcome to the FPN.

 

Nice looking pen you've found. What color (s) of ink do you plan to try in your Inxocrom?

 

You know that you are not restricted to just using cartridges in your new pen. By using bottle ink you can have any color in the rainbow! Once you have some cartridges that the ink has been use out of, save them & rise them out under room temp water, soak the carts until you get your syringe Then flush them out using a cartridge filling syringe, this can be found at Goulet's Pen Co (no affiliation). Just Google Goulet's. Then enter in their search line, syringe to fill cartridges, and it won't cost much. Might want to buy some bottle ink either there or Amazon or were ever you can find a good brand for less. By the time it arrives, you should have some empty carts. Just refill the carts. Costs much less than buying carts of ink!

 

Enjoy your stay here.

If your out-go is more than your income,

 

Then your up-keep.

 

May be your Down-falll!!!

Welcome !

 

As mr2txaggie advises, cartridges can be refilled. DO use a syringe ! You might be tempted to squeeze the cartridge. DON'T ! It will crack.

 

Write with joy.

      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
