Masters Of The Fountain Pen

[inkstick]

Hi there,

 

I've decided, on second thought, to leave the FPN for a while. As a matter of fact, I've been suffering from a certain disease since last March. So, I'm afraid I'll be offline to concentrate on the treatment. It's indeed disappointing that I have to say "So long"... When I recover from my disease, I'll surely be back to the FPN. Thanks for your understanding.

 

See you then!

Best wishes from Japan,

As you are a great contributor to The Fountain Pen Network and I thought you were fine, I was very surprised to hear of your illness. I respect your will to make a decision on the treatment.

I hope you will improve with rest!

Kota,

I am so sorry to hear this,

its funny how we adopt friends from around the world and although I have never met you in person, I do count you as one. You have shared your family, your passions and your craft with with us.

I hope with all my heart your path is what you and your family and friends desire.

I know this is late, but I really hope you get well soon Adachi-san!!! I feel a bit worried, but hope that your inactivity is because you are busy with life.

Has anyone heard any more from Kota Adachi?

Having been other wise engaged for a while and getting back into things but noticed Adachi- sans' YouTube content has disappeared.

I do hope and trust everything is well.

Hello NotVirtuTheThirdTV,

I once had all of the Masters of the Fountain Pen series on my iPad, but when I upgraded iOS in 2021, I lost access.

Some are available for re-uploading, but I am looking for the episodes (1) fellow in department store trying out FPs and (2) Fullhalter nibmeister grinding a nib and (3) Sailor reps in a department store offering on-site FP adjusting. 
Any chance you would have access to these that you could share?

Thank you,

Microgrs

Thank you so much for posting these, @notVirtuThe3rd. I had seen (and loved) these on YouTube, but didn't know how they ended up there. It made me so interested in getting some Indian and Japanese lathed pens. I can't see it being made in person, so the videos were amazing.
