jaysongo, is your data available in electronic form in a spreadsheet or database? Though your intent was to test papers, I think you equally have data on a wide variety of pens and inks. That could easily be harvested from an electronic file, perhaps much less easily from hand written notes.

I do have a spreadsheet that I use, and I'll make it available if you're still interested in it, but I don't list pens and ink at all as I only use it for tabulation, so it's only referenced by sample number.

Thanks. It looks like the information could be added to the file based on the scans above, but, given the (lack of) speed and accuracy of my typing, I never volunteer for data entry!-)

Wow thanks for the amazing comparisons and those amazing scans! Definitely love my current PPI= Visconti Kakadu w/ M 18K + Mnemosyne N195 + KWZ Dark Brown, it's so heavenly smooth! Even prefer it to my Seven Seas notebook atm. Gonna try out some Tsubame though, want to see what a little more texture feels like! :P :P

Thanks for the nice words. I've never used a Visconti, always wanted to though. Never paid more than $100 CAD for a pen, for that matter. One of these days I'll break that rule...

 

I'll probably have another round out tomorrow or the day after.
