I'm sorry the thread is ending, it was always a place to come and see marvellous things.

 

Thank you so much for the wonderful posts, the excellent education, and the humour, and the pens.

 

And the wonderfully mournful looking Mr Sotsass in your last post, which is fully up to your high standards. (Lychee green! I should have known!)

 

All the best and "mind how you go" as we say in Norfolk.

Too many pens, too little time!

Is it a pen you got from me?

Oh Christof! I just read that you are stopping your wonderful thread. I visit every couple of months to feast on your wonderful documentation of fine fountain pens and always learn something new. Thank you for sharing your enthusiasm, artistry, photography and knowledge. Best wishes for your future projects! Chris

I just started a second try of a thread , a little bit easier, maybe more entertaining and less educating - just pen pictures for example. But let's see how it works.

 

Here comes the link: https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/topic/355594-pen-photography/?p=4356726

 

see you there.

      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

      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
