I no longer own any fountain pens... Now they own me.

I tend to fill them all up and then use them till they're all empty -- then start over. Here's the result of a recent marathon refill session, as demonstrated in a bound blank Canson sketchbook.

Thanks for letting me play along! So many lovely pens, inks and writing. You'all are an inspiration!

I wanted a black anodized one, but it turns out that this one matches my Macbook perfectly. And I got it for about 75% less than they usually sell for. :thumbup:

I am having photo upload problems. I posted but the photos are not uploading.....I am using an Aurora Optima and a 1952 NOS broad flex nib Eversharp.

Rob Maguire (Plse call me "M or Mags" like my friends do...)I use a Tablet, Apple Pencil and a fountain pen. Targas, Sailor, MB, Visconti, Aurora, vintage Parkers, all wonderful.

Just cleaned the inkwell, and now deciding which new ink color. Maybe Montblanc Irish Green, or a a good blue. The pen takes a rest in her holder...

Looks like a Duofold I have. It was actually my very first Parker. The nib sings.

This one's on Moleskine graph paper. I tried to print to make the writing more legible, but I flop over to script occasionally when I'm in a hurry...

OcalaFlGuy and GClef -- I'm always surprised that this model doesn't get more credit. Mine (not sure of the date on it) is an absolute joy to use, and I think they are prettier than the horizontal-ring Vacs.

I didn't want to miss this superb thread but as at the moment I don't have a decent camera about with me, I've had to settle with my Blackberry, which produces poor quality pics I'm afraid!
