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

[LWJ2]

A lengthy update this morning, such are the sins of not updating more often. )

 

I've been experimenting with making my own ruled paper, this was done with Open Office Calc, which allows me to specify line density and width much better than Excel, I have the 2000 or 2003 version thereof. For those who wish to know, the vertical lines are 0.5 points wide, 20% black; the horizontal rules are 1.0 points, 30% black, printed on a Brother 5250DN laser printer. If anyone wishes a PDF of it, let me know, I'll e-mail it.

HI everyone!

 

I've had a 75 hour work week during which I would much rather have been playing with fountain pens and posting here. I am sooo glad Friday is here!

 

I inked up a rare Conklin "Halloween" ringtop with J. Herbin Orange Indien, in anticipation of next month's popular celebration.

My first post. I really like this idea. Here goes.

It worked great! Great flow and a smooth nib straight out of the box (well, plastic wrapper...).

 

I got to thinking about it and I realized that of the five cheapo Chinese pens I have I've never had to alter the nibs. I've got two Heros, two Baoers, and one other that I can't remember the name of.
