Filled it out and sent it in. The big failing of the survey is that it only lets me choose one kind of nib for what I use. :)

Thank you for posting about this awesome opportunity!

I received mine a few weeks ago and love it! I saw in one of the emails from Art that some people have "hacked" their cover to have an elastic closure similar to the Midori. I didn't want to put a hole in mine so I tried something a little different. Having 2 small girls pretty much guarantees I'll find a small elastic hair tie around at some point. Turns out it is the perfect size to hold it closed. Obviously it would be a hassle to take on and off every time I want to write in the book, so I attached it to the string closure and bead already on the cover! Turns out it also hold my Pilot Prera in place quite well too. Here are some pictures to show my makeshift closure.

Loop the hair tie around the bead

Wrap around the journal

Also holds a Pilot (Namiki) Prera perfectly

I hope this helps, but I'm sure someone else has figured this out already!

Wow, I thought of using an elastic but for the life of me didn't think about using the string enclosure as the way to hold the elsastic!

 

I just did it using one of the Midori Passport band refill things and it works great, Good stuff

Those who hurt me were not only someone else,

but also those who pretended not to notice. It was my friend.

Couldn't resist, ordered!

 

We lack this type of leather in South Africa, as all our stuff is exported and nothing is left for us!

 

Reminds me of the glorious Horween Chromexel that you all have State side :wub:

Excellent service. Let's hope the people at customs don't give me a hard time :)

Been over a month and I am still waiting :(

 

Received a postcard from a ministry in the States that was sent a week after, a week ago. So I am not too sure as to what the hold up is.
