Well..about that....

A translucent blue sheaffer's school pen, 305 nib with a blue cartridge. I'd rather be using the Parker duofold I recently purchased, but here in the wilderness I am having problems getting the appropriate ink for the Parker.

The sheaffer is working out ok..

I suppose I should add that just two days ago I dug the old pens out, after several years of nothing as far as FP collecting goes...anyway, the simple sheaffer fits my simple demeanor. I'm golden!!

Lesson 14 from Lloyd J. Reynolds' series on Italic Handwriting, with a 1.5 mm Pilot Parallel pen.

 

Perhaps I should consider getting a proper italic nib on a fountain pen. Although I think the idea of the Parallel Pen is brilliant, it's just not the same as writing with a fountain pen nib. So far, I have stubs from TWSBI and Visconti and maybe it's time to ask a nib meister to grind a proper cursive italic for me.

 

Until then, Pilot Parallel it is.

This, but with a medium nib:

Couldn't be happier! :-) However, waiting for a couple of fast-drying Noodler's Bernanke Blue, since it writes really wet.

Spencer's ringtop with a Warrented semi-flex nib; I've got it filled with Diamine Oxblood, which gives my memos an aura of menace.

Switching gears briefly today - I'm using an Esterbrook dip desk pen with the Osmiroid fine italic (but changing that soon)

 

I found a full jar of old Pelikan Sepia 15 drawing ink at a thrift store for $2, so I'm playing with that.

 

Yeah, yeah....pics coming when I get a chance. B)
