In Italian mood today, so here I am snailing with:

  • Omas Big Ogiva in Burgundy with Noodler's Sawaro Wine
  • Omas Paragon Saft Green Cellulloid (and gold trim) with blue Aurora

Happy as a clam, lovely sunny Saturday in Maceió. Anyone wants to join me for a caipirinha?

Please describe the ingredients.

I think I may just be an oddity on this board. I pick one pen, and usually just use that one pen through the day, unless there is an odd occurrance that forces me to use another.

 

That being said, todays was my Parker "51" Aero. Black with Lustraloy cap.

S.T. Dupont Fidelio loaded with "my" ink, a 2:1 mix of PR DC SS Blue and Tanzanite and a Waterman Liaison with Waterman Florida blue. As always, there is a Waterman Philias in my jacket pocket.

Just received my first Targa yesterday - so we're at the "getting to know each other exclusively" phase of the dating game.

Denis, nice to see you using the CS #58.

 

Today for me it's Burgundy Parker 51 with gold filled cap converging lines aero.

Today it was a blue Pelikan M605 and red marbled Optima. Tonight, I am simply going with a Lamy 2000. What a fantastic pen! Filled with a blend of Pelikan blue and violet.

AZ - that's worse than my list - but I've had to work hard to get it down (and you should see some of the ones in queue).

 

But you may not show that sample of 21 without a picture over on the Eclipse thread! Wow - what a nib on that one - is it Eclipse or Warrented?

 

(a picture of 1 would be nice too).

So if you have a lot of ink,

You should get a Yink, I think.

Today:

In the shirt pocket with the Oxford ruled notebook is the Pelikan M625, "F" nib, fuilled with Sheaffer "Skrip" blue.

In the vest pocket with a Moleskine ruled cashier's notebook is the Blue Carbonesque Pilot Vanishing Point filled with the run-of-the-mill pilot blue ink cartridge.

 

Time to get that order in for some good ink. I'm really getting a hankerin' for that Noodler's Private Reserve DC Supershow Blue.

 

Cheers, Dean

      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
