Welcome to Ink Reviews


Ann Finley

Recommended Posts

Greetings to all members of FPN :), and welcome to the Ink Reviews Forum.

 

Everyone appreciates a good, thorough-as-possible review of any ink they may be considering for addition to their collection. This is the forum in which to place those reviews. For anyone that may wish to post a review, but may not be sure what to include, you'll find another pinned topic always at the top of this forum with suggestions for including what most members would like to know about an ink.

 

When new reviews are done, they will be added to the Index of Ink Reviews, also pinned for your reference at the top of this forum.

 

Here's hoping we'll see many reviews and they'll soon be no "blank spaces" beside an ink listed in the index!

 

Thanks...And, again, welcome!

Ann

Hi folks,

 

I just wanted to add my welcome message to Ann's and Michael's.

 

I feel somewhat the fraud (not being the most prolific poster), but I am dedicated to my new job on moderating the inky forums. It is going to be my particular mission (along with my fellow mods) to work on a new sub-forum of “Ink Reviews”: “Ink Comparisons, Scans and Tests”.

 

We thought it was important to make the distinction between what we thought of as a true ink review and a simple scan or comparison or water test, for example. These threads are really important and you will see indices of these pinned at the top of the new sub-forum when it “goes live”.

 

You might find that some threads “disappear” for a while from “Inky Thoughts” and “Ink Reviews”; this is because they are being moved to the new sub-forum, which will not be displayed until it has been populated. Please bear with us – the population should be complete in the next couple of days and the indexing in a week or two.

 

We hope that you find the results useful and welcome any feedback to any of our inboxes.

 

Enjoy!

 

Chris

 

p.s. This welcome message will be edited when the new sub-forum becomes visible.

Hi gang!

 

It's a pleasure and a privilege to serve as one of your Inky Mods and to work with Chris and Ann. We'll do our best to make the inky forums as user-friendly as possible. Got an idea? Fire a PM or email to us and we'll hash it over. We've already come up with some ideas that should help, but we're here to serve.

 

Take care,

Michael

      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
