I love reading this thread, so I thought I would join in the fun. Clearly I'm very late to the party. Hopefully not too late...

 

Anyway, here is one of my calligraphy Frankenpens:

It's been a while for me too. When one of your favourite pens is loaded with one of your favourite inks, magic rarely fails to happen.

I love this thread. Isn't there also one about show is your stubs?

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

Uh... is this fountainpennetwork.com?

 

 

The 'interesting' thing is that, with the COVID-19 health crisis (and, more specifically, my fellow citizens' — my peers' and equals' — behaviours and demonstrated attitudes in response) being so depressing, it's the first time in years that I found myself having the enthusiasm to touch very few of my fountain pens if at all, and now it's dawned on me that I could probably do with just 30 pens instead of 200+ (not counting the ones that have moved to my wife's fleet permanently).

I endeavour to be frank and truthful in what I write, show or otherwise present, when I relate my first-hand experiences that are not independently verifiable; and link to third-party content where I can, when I make a claim or refute a statement of fact in a thread. If there is something you can verify for yourself, I entreat you to do so, and judge for yourself what is right, correct, and valid. I may be wrong, and my position or say-so is no more authoritative and carries no more weight than anyone else's here.

I made that discovery and shared a bunch of pens and ink.

 

And I understand about the inter-marital movement of pens and ink.

Oh, but I "have" all the inks... and the ultrasonic cleaner, which makes me the frequent recipient of requests coached as, "Husband, I think this pen has run out of ink. It needs cleaning and refilling."

 

The timestamps of any photos I take and then post on FPN these days will show it's always out of business hours Monday to Friday, because my study/workshop/spare room has been taken over by SWMBO's "work from home" arrangement.

It would be good to get back to the subject of Don't Just Tell Us About The Pen You're Using *show* Us! which,. of course, is why we read this thread

 

 

Thanks
