Don't Just Tell Us About The Pen You're Using, *show* Us! - 2016

[the_gasman]

Hi, first post so please be gentle! I have a lovely old Dunhill FP which I never use so it is pristine. I want to reanimate it but don't know its model name, can anyone help? It looks like this and is very slimline. I need to know which cartridges to order (I'm hopng just the standard ones).

Thanks

ADC

Great first post. How about a picture with the cap off and, while you're at it, a writing sample. I know that it would mean simply a dip into the ink until someone advises which cartidge/converter to use. I can't answer your question, but welcome to the madness anyway.

 

Cheers,

David.

Pen in rotation today is ASA Swan which I have fitted with #5 Ambitious Flex Nib. The feed from Schmidt Nib Unit Keep up with the flex nib amazingly well. The ink used is Pelikan Edlestein Amethyst.

Today’s Thought inspiration is from Kabir, who was an Indian poet and saint.

Very nice!! Love the Autumn Oak in the parallel pen, it really pumps up the volume on the shading!

Finally got around to go get these pads, Office Depot Sugar Cane 5x8 pads, really nice. Got 6 pads of 50 sheets for $7 (US) I believe these are a sale price.
