Just ordered a kingsize Conid Bulk Filler demonstrator with the Caiso system. Now one month of waiting...

Nice! It's worth the wait :)

Dream, take one step at a time and achieve. :)

Since I referred to it in another thread, I am waiting patiently on an S T Dupont Line D Atelier in the deep purple shade of chinese lacquer.

Hope you got your 3776 :)

 

I always swear to myself that I won't buy any more pens...I've been a liar...(^_^)

 

Yes, I had it set to be redelivered on monday and I am beyond happy with it. :vbg: It's a curse. You get that incurable collecting bug and you're hopelessly bound. Now that I have my C74 and 3776, a blue Sailor Profit Standard(1911 Profit Standard?) is next on the list to complete my "big 3 collection" of Japanese classic cigar-style pens. So the problem really is that blasted wishlist. I'll give it a month or two. :rolleyes: I'm going to try expanding my ink and paper I think.

with a charge from over several millennia of continuing the art of recording man's life.

Nice!!

Expanding on inks and papers is a great idea. I will do that too :)

 

At least we all here have the same bug lol

Today was an expensive day. I bought a Pilot Vanishing Point matte black and just won an auction on eBay for a Parker 45 Arrow in turquoise. :o

I was checking Ebay for a pink fountain pen to use at work, during "Breast Cancer Awareness Week". (Donna calls it, "Saving second base.") A model 1002 Lion King, in pink, fell to my desire for 31¢ , yesterday. It's been shipped. It was raining, so I tried for the others of same model. So far, I won four others for total $1.47 . I bid on eleven others, between now and 9:00 am tomorrow.

 

None of the fifteen, spontaneous bids is for another pink pen, of course. Nobody needs more than ONE pink fountain pen ! :blush:

Considering the cause, I might have thought you would get two. :)

 

 

 

OK, OK, I'm going.

Impulsive bid on an Esterbrook with a 2048 nib, and won it.

I have no self control whatsoever.... :blush:

After selling my Danitrio and some inks, I finally ordered a Conid Kingsize Bulkfiller Streamline in black ebony with medium rhodium plated gold nib. I chose the yellow ink window. It should look like this:

I did consider the CAISO demonstrator version, but I'll start with this classic. There's a red flat-top limited edition due out soon....it may be needed (NEEDED) as a suitable pairing :rolleyes:

Pens: Conid Kingsize ebonite (x2)
Inks:   KWZ Dark Brown / KWZ IG Orange / Diamine Chocolate / Diamine Burnt Sienna / Diamine Ochre / Monteverde Scotch Brown

Not in the mail but two Hastils headed my way, one DHL and one UPS. Both pass through Germany on the way here so it is the race of the carriers.

I keep forgetting that I have 3 JIFs coming. One is blue with black cats chasing white mice. I had bought this before but somehow managed to lose it and I've been keeping an eye out for another one.
