I finally emptied my first bottle of ink (too many cartridges and odd ink colors), a bottle of Skrip Blue. This is not the most recent bottle (the tapered cone looking one) but the 2 ounce bottle with the integrated inkwell. I would like to keep using this bottle - I like the inkwell - but I'm...

I miss him too, presumably not as much as those of you who knew him well, but I do miss him. I used to be a daily lurker, then went away for a while, then came back and was immediately struck by Frank's absence. Then, I was saddened when a Google search revealed the reason. I'd like to see whether...

Ten days ago I posted a message asking about the ink capacity of cartridges. No answers so far. Today I had a little project. I'm planning to use Noodler's Black (waterproof) to make out all checks from now on since it's very resistant to "washing." I'll use my Sheaffer Triumph Imperial pen...

One of my collecting interests is Japanese pens and I've often wondered where the wonderful pens I see in books can be found, and at reasonable prices. Rarely do any show up on eBay, and even fewer show up on the websites of dealers or at pen shows. In this quest I came to investigate the...

How do you check a fountain pen after you've repaired it? I've put a new diaphragm in a vac, and I did a good job. I'm sure of it. But I don't quite know how far I trust it. So I inked it up. Nothing pouring out of the top, bottom, or side. (And it writes beautifully, thank you!) But do I...

Was looking for some nice but not outrageously expensive fountain pents for my groomsmen's gift for my upcoming wedding, and I'd been looking at the Rotring 600, Cross ATX, Waterman Phileas, and a few others. Stopped by a pen shop in San Francisco this week and was shown a pen called the Libelle...

A 21 year old girl saunters into a prestigous car showroom, looks around all the Porsches, Ferrari's and Lamborghini's before deciding on a top-end Red Porsche. "I'll pay cash!" she says and hands over a bagful of Twenties. The deal is finalised very quickly and the girl drives it away. 2 days...

Hi all, I have a "small" problem with a pair of Rotring Cores I bought this past December. Whenever I use the converters that came with the pens, they leak! The pens went back for service, and they were "adjusted" but as far as I can tell, nothing was done. Any advice (other than just use...
