Today I am playing with my Pelikan M200 with Italic nib. I inked it with Rohrer & Klingner Cassia.

 

I am a little disappointed with this Italic nib, I was expecting it to be more crisp and have better line variation.

 

My writing looks nicer with Lamy 1.1 and 1.5 nibs than with this Pelikan Italic nib.

 

 

My Birthday pen!

 

Visconti Divina Elegance in Blue (large size) with fine 23 k palladium nib and Iro Kon-Peki ink

 

Happy Birthday!!!!

 

Dusted off the Parker Vector M-nib; unfortunately only uses cartridges so limited in color selection, so black is the choice today

 

I picked up a Parker converter to use in my Parker Vector. Works great. :)

Something different today. Along with the Esterbrook J that is my main daily, I also have a couple that I just rejuvenated:

 

Sheaffer Balance Jr #3 nib

Esterbrook LJ 2668 (the 2556 nib that I started with was just too scratchy and brutal)

Yep, I finally figured out the attach setup from an iPhone or iPad. Thanks for confirming that's how others do it as well.

Which inks are you using?

I was trying some Noodler's.

Today, I'm using the same pen with Paradise Pen Company black for my important school form.

EDIT: I just inked up my Parker 180 from my grandpa.

Going to be the new Platinum 3776 Century in Chartres Blue with the Music nib, ink is Pigment Blue at least as long as the cartridge holds out. Then it will drink some Baystate Blue.

I got a new pen today! Don't mind all my other junk. :) Twsbi filled with Noodlers Q'Ternity.

 

Cool tools! Wave and TWSBI (although a 580 in my case) are some of my favorite tools as well.

 

Today, though, is Montblanc day for me:

MB 246 from Denmark, green marbled, F nib with seaweed green MB Jonathan Swift ink

MB 149 O3B with MB Permanent Grey ink

MB Agatha Christie F with Iroshizuku Asa-gao ink

journaling / tinkering with pens / sailing / photography / software development

Today (so far):

Stainless steel Parker Vector (M) with Diamine Sargasso Sea to start my morning pages journal; finished up when it ran out of ink with:

Parker 61 (M) with the same (now moderately) diluted blue-black ink I've been slowly reconstituting, writing with and then flushing slightly to reconstitute).

 

Noodler's Ebonite Konrad (flex nib) with Noodler's 54th; and

Noodler's resin Konrad (flex nib) with Noodler's El Lawrence (both for writing checks to pay bills with).

 

Parker 51Aero (the Plummer) (M) with Noodler's Purpe Heart, for this week's Artist' Way chapter assignments.

 

Parker Vac Major Silver Pearl (F?) with De Atramentis Tchaikowsky for well, maybe the Sunday crossword....
