I have looked at all the inks you showed in this thread many times. I can't imagine how long this took to do in total. Thanks again!

With the new FPN rules, now I REALLY don't know what to put in my signature.

Greetings and Many Thanks for the awesome display, I appreciate the amount of work this entailed.

I started collecting LAMY Vista's, since I first wrote with one a few weeks ago and discovered how smooth the nib was. (Even smoother than my Phileas Medium!)

I use mainly 1.1 nibs as they seem to be the more consistently smooth size. I have all of the other sizes, but some are disappointingly scratchy. Having experienced the joy of a smooth nib, to find one less smooth really was a pity.

Have you ever encountered this? And do you do any nib-smoothing?

 

Thanks again for your work.

 

Best Regards,

Steve.

I know that this thread was resurrected by someone and it might make make some unhappy. But I'm glad they did. This is VERY useful and I found it greatly helpful. Thanks for the work!

If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands?" Patrick Henry

This thread is so cool. Thank you.

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).
