Oh that's awful!

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

What pens today have you?

Hmm today I am using my Estense (Italian celluloid lever filler), Krone Santa Fe Edition, Rally 10 (French button filler) and a Soennecken.

Myep, this was today's project and now my favorite pen of all time. Here's the link to how to fit a G nib in an Ahab: https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/index.php/topic/280684-how-to-fit-a-manga-g-nib-into-a-noodlers-ahab/

 

 

 

That is really cool. I really dislike the Akkerman pump pen I have here so I may just have to try doing this.

Someone asked about a double piston filling fountain pen awhile back. No idea who, or when or why? I was going to grease this one up to help improve the seal and I discovered it is a double piston filler. Also showing a single piston Mercedes for comparison.

If you miss a day or two on this thread you really fall far behind!

 

TeaHive, I'm amazed what you are able to do with that Noodler's Ahab - fantastic!!

 

I used this pen to sign some Christmas cards then ran out of ink and had to try a bottle of KWZI that recently arrived.

My sweet Dulcinea is very hesitant to come and show herself....

The pen is Varuna custom satin ebonite eyedropper, clipless, handmade in India. The beautiful nib is a survivor of a tragic pen related disaster. After a long time of recovery... it was decided that we have the technology to re-built it.. It became a fantastic writer with lots of line variation and a fair bit of bounce... Everything you might want on a nib and more.

Her name is Dulcinea.... something this special, needs a name of its own. ;)

WOW - she sounds like the droid R4. I'm glad she's recovered. She writes beautifully for you!

 

Ditto with TAS - What an Ink!

I was trying to get a smile from the 70's kids.. Using the phrase from the 6Million Dollar Man... We have the technology... we can rebuild him.. :lol:
