Sailor did you find one? There is still a lot black ink coming out of mine.

 

Found a desk pen.  I will have to find a cap, and probably go through the same things you did.  🍀

My other pen is a Montblanc.

I flushed mine as much as possible without an ultrasonic bath.  Now I need to find a donor cap and test it.

Good luck! My Dolphin is still giving up ink. Still soaking the nib and ultrasonic cleaning. Flakes of ink and clouds of grey are coming out

Thanks!  Mine's a desk pen, and I found a very makeshift donor cap.  I might try loading it tomorrow.

 

Good luck with yours and keep me posted.

It's cleaned, it has a donor cap. Loaded with Skrip Blue Black.  And it writes!  Seems to be a medium nib.

 

Any luck with yours yet?

      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.

      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.
