It depends on the specific "type" of bottle you got, I suppose. If you bought something like this:

 

<snippage>

 

then you should be able to fit a 14-gauge or finer Luer-lock syringe needle onto the bottle.

I did get something like that, a mix of 50ml and 30ml bottles and a variety of tips (needle) and caps.

 

I haven't implemented my cunning plan to use one as a travelling syringe-inkpot, cos the caps are slip-ons.

 

Once upon a time Rotring packaged their inks in a bottle that incorporated a plastic "syringe" tip. I haven't asked Google if they're still available. I'm assuming not.

 

For home use, I am optimistic that these little bottles will work. I'll know in a week.

I haven't implemented my cunning plan to use one as a travelling syringe-inkpot, cos the caps are slip-ons.

Even if the caps were secured using a Luer lock mechanism (thus replacing the blunt tip needle, when the bottles are being transported and not actively used for filling), I still wouldn't trust them for air travel; and it'd still be messy having to detach, flush and dry the blunt tip needle attachment after each use.

Do you mean these?

I endeavour to be frank and truthful in what I write, show or otherwise present, when I relate my first-hand experiences that are not independently verifiable; and link to third-party content where I can, when I make a claim or refute a statement of fact in a thread. If there is something you can verify for yourself, I entreat you to do so, and judge for yourself what is right, correct, and valid. I may be wrong, and my position or say-so is no more authoritative and carries no more weight than anyone else's here.

      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
