Love the new inks. Akkerman Dutch Masters Ruisdaels stormachtig blauw is currently in two pens. The Fire and Ice is set aside for now, loving the emerald green sample you provided. Astorquiza I have in one pen and the colour is becoming a favourite. It is a colour I am getting to be fond of the more I use it.

 

Thanks for the inks.

Hopeful that the May meeting is just as fun and even better attended than the Marxh and April sessions.

Thanks so much for posting those! For those of us who are out of the city and not able to make it -- I've been a nomad now for a few years, and sadly, every time I'm back home there isn't a meet-up -- it gives us something to look forward to on our return.

 

Thanks a million,

D.

Not sure how you choose the dates for Toronto Pens & Pints? Some friends and I are some of your southerly neighbors, and we got to thinking...

 

The GNYPIG club is planning a "pen-spedition" from Buffalo up to Toronto on August 19th. Any chance we could organize a combined meetup? We've already been in touch with Michelle Leung...

 

Cheers!

We can certainly try, but what does a "pen spedition" entails?

I guess a "pen-spedition" is like an "expedition" but exploring pen shops instead of undiscovered lands... :)

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      By Misfit · Posted

      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
