I LOVE THIS IDEA!!!

Coordinated Fountain Pen ... uh.... Use Day. 

Hmm... needs work. 

Oh, how about this:

Fountain Pen Double Day!

Choose your Pen. Choose your Double. Set the Date. Go!

Should we make a separate thread for this? Isn't National Fountain Pen Day the first Friday in November? If so, we need to get crackin'! How many FPN members can we get to body double with us on this? 

Whaddya say, @Misfit

What say you all, FPN members?

Wanna?

😃

Oh I like this! Yes, let’s start a new thread, but keep this one going for the Sapphire Mosaic. 
 

On the thread for Fountain Pen Day, it’s would be a great way to include members who are not buying on that day. Because FPD celebration includes using your pens.

And gosh darn it, look what just dropped into my inbox from Levenger!

https://www.levenger.com/products/true-writer-velocity-carrara-pen

I know, I know! It's a ballpoint. But put down the pitchforks a minute, please. 

You aren’t alone. There is a sub for It Writes, But Isn’t A Fountain Pen. 
 

I like customizable multi pens. I buy Retro 51 roller balls and mechanical pencils. I also bought some of the Uniball One P chunky short pens that take a normal size refill. 
 

The Carrara makes a pretty ballpoint. I have that in the fountain pen. Mmm, pretty pen.

My TW Sapphire Mosaic was empty. I cleaned it. Now it’s ready for a new ink. Since the Pelikan Hub is tomorrow (technically today) I’m thinking of buying a bottle of Pelikan Edelstein Sapphire ink.

Here it is

 

I registered for the 2025 Hub, but I’m probably not going to go for various reasons some of which are related to the communications from the Hubmaster. I’m being honest and candid and speaking strictly for myself.

I received one of my Levenger orders today.

Origins is the top pen. It got a special presentation box. Porcelain is the bottom pen. I’ve already given Origins a Nemosine 1.1mm stub nib.

Those are gorgeous. The Origins is one I should’ve bought because I love the green and the silver combination. I’m not really a gold plated type and I love silver with a lot of these other colors. It looks really nice..

Yay! They're both gorgeous! I love my Origins.

Great and congrats on the MS. My purple RB refills arrived. Still waiting on the broad nibs and a backordered RB refill. I think the leaves25 might be gone. It’s now FALLCLEAR extra 30 off. You didn’t get the promo I mentioned above in your email this morning?

I haven’t checked email yet. But I will. Just seemed odd to get the Leaves25 in the mail today.

Here is the TW Midnight Spark. I swapped out the nib, and gave it a Nemosine 1.1mm stub nib. I filled it with Diamine Eclipse ink.

Can you show a sample of the ink with the stub nib? Thanks.

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @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

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast. 
    • Ceilidh
      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
