Don't Just Tell Us About The Pen You're Using, *show* Us!

[dcpritch]

Hey zoni, I saw your picture and added a line where I noticed a distinct change in pens and ink. Funny how that works, huh?

I am using some great new pens this week!

 

Exhibit A - a really nice burgundy snorkel with factory B2 nib.

Check out the width of this line! Not bad for a vintage sheaffer.

Exhibit B - Sheaffer snorkel with a factory S4 nib. It's about a 1.28 line and nib width.

Yummy! I'm so happy. I just need to find my grail pen now - the elusive 14K gold version of this nib. I've been looking for a loooooooooooong time.

And finally, my trusty TWSBI 530 with the Pelikan m625 nib (M). This one is pretty much always inked.

And here is the picture that showed me the tines got knocked out of alignment. I'll have to look into that when I get home.

OH WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!... Amazing !!!!

[saskia_madding]

Sweet Potato Yellow is an ink I'm trying out by Sailor made exclusively for the Bung Box store. I'm doing a review soon and might be able to post it before I go on vacation next week. Here's hoping!

[dcpritch]

saskia, those are some great looking inks, and even nicer nibs.

 

Here are a couple of pens that don't get much use around my desk, but are pretty darn cool:

 

Parker "61" Custom with M-B nib, unknown (as in, I forgot) ink

Parker 50 Falcon, integrated M-B nib, Levenger Blue Bahama ink

My Monteverde Invincia Stylus

and the ever present Noodlers Flex

_{DC i am digging that photoshoot... Nice...}

_{Zoniguanna... love the pit markers... I have a much smaller selection... welcome to the flex pen dilema... a life quest to find the perfect pen...}

_{Liam... that monteverde looks rather interesting..... INTERNET SEARCH..}

 

Despite the potential for drooling, Totes, I think that Neponset is pretty darn amazing...

Great looking Parkers! Parker do know how to make slim pens!

Prvt.Toter: Nice drawings! You brought a new weapon to the bird fight. Really advanced of your falcon to use biological weapons! I think seagull has to change her tactics if she’s to survive this “war”…

 

saskia_madding: Really a nice set of pens and ink colours! Same to you, Uncle Red; I really like your ink palette!

 

Zoniguana: Good to see that your daughter is into fountain pens! She’s a little bit “brighter” than her father regarding ink colours.

 

Dcpritch: thank you for giving all those fountain pens to kids!

 

Ptero: Love your green sea horse! What’s up with Eagle? If he doesn’t hit the breaks by now, he’ll end up on the north pole!

 

Today I use green ink:

Pens: Swan Mabie todd with Noodler's army green ink, Pan Jr. with Iroshizuku chiku-rin

 

Now I've packed my fountain pen "bag" for the summer. I've left an empty room for a Japanese brush pen that I'm waiting for.

She does love her colors; I'm learning to love them...

Where does Bung Box get their names? Sweet Potato Purple? Nice looking purple.

 

I still have the same inks and pens, I've been lame the last few days.

Trying out two new inks today - Sheaffer Turquoise (in a Parker 45) and Sheaffer Green (in a Twsbi Vac 700). Part of a set of six Sheaffer inks which I won in a contest.
