Needle Converter Filler

It depends on the specific "type" of bottle you got, I suppose. If you bought something like this:

then you should be able to fit a 14-gauge or finer Luer-lock syringe needle onto the bottle.

I did get something like that, a mix of 50ml and 30ml bottles and a variety of tips (needle) and caps.

 

I haven't implemented my cunning plan to use one as a travelling syringe-inkpot, cos the caps are slip-ons.

 

Once upon a time Rotring packaged their inks in a bottle that incorporated a plastic "syringe" tip. I haven't asked Google if they're still available. I'm assuming not.

 

For home use, I am optimistic that these little bottles will work. I'll know in a week.

Even if the caps were secured using a Luer lock mechanism (thus replacing the blunt tip needle, when the bottles are being transported and not actively used for filling), I still wouldn't trust them for air travel; and it'd still be messy having to detach, flush and dry the blunt tip needle attachment after each use.

Do you mean these?

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.

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast.

      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
