Stipula Light Blue arrived Wed - what a pretty color! Filled a cart and popped it in a PaperMate school pen, it wrote for a bit then just stopped. Pulled the cart and popped it a JIF, same result. At this point, I figured it was the ink and not the pens. Filled an M205 M and it's working fine now. Did I mention what a pretty color it is?

It's hard work to tell which is Old Harry when everybody's got boots on.

So far it's been Noodler's inks: Luck of the Draw (in the Noodler's Boston Safety) and Kung Te Cheng (in one of the Noodler's Charlie pens).

Follow up to previous post: After sitting overnight and with a very reluctant start, the Stipula Light Blue is now writing pretty consistently in the JIF.

My ink education continues: spent a day fighting with a Noodler's creaper and Noodler's HoD and Brown #41, to get a wet line that doesn't feather all over the shop.

 

Sucked some Diamine Eau de Nil into a second creaper today, and deflated.
