Has anyone here ever had any experience with Bruno Pens from Italy? Today, I was surfing the Web and came across some rather colorful "Kosmos" fountain pens made in Italy by Bruno: http://www.tryphon.it/pens/bruno/ Has anyone had any experiences both pro and con with this manufacturer? Their...

To my surprise the bic crystal pen won't write when held less than horizontal. I could perhaps use pencils, but I'd like to ask you, how can i make a bic pen write upside down, or what other cheap pens would?

While surfing the Web I ran across this interesting story: HELD FOR ATTACKING WITH FOUNTAIN PEN Frank Sawallich, 27, Monday was held on a charge of assault to do great bodily harm. Walter Reedy 22, who preferred the charge, said Sawallich attacked him with a fountain pen and stabbed him three...

I bought cartridges yesterday and saw that I had a choice between permanent and watshable ink. Now for me it was an easy choice; I wanted permanent because I didn't want my writing washed off if caught in a sudden splash of rain. Now, maybe I'm missing something, but why would anyone want...

Please note: Penspiration is in a time of transition. Janie and I are in the midst of a divorce. I can say no more than that as I know that this forum is being monitored. Efforts are being made to take care of orders and deal with all of the issues that go along with such a life transition. You'll...

Once again, lightning's struck with another topic for the mostly irregular Pop Survey. This month (and pro'lly the next since it's the end of May), the question is... How many pens...AWK! This is a.c.p-p! What was I thinking?!...I mean, How many *fountain pens* do you own?

Anyone here tried the Pentel Tetras Stylo "disposable fountain pens"? They sound interesting "Unique double-sided nib, firm one side, flexible the other for stylish writing. Smooth flowing liquid ink with a high-tech ink regulator." I recall trying the older ones and they were a favorite...

Hi everybody I have a bottle of (according to the label) Noodler's Blue. It's well-behaved ink, but I'm starting to wonder if I got a mis-labeled bottle. What I have is very turquoise-y - it reminds me of the old Sheaffer Peacock Blue. I was expecting to get a more standard blue shade from an ink...

Somewhere I remember that factories used orange shellac to cement sections to barrels and some used a 50/50 mixture of rosin and beeswax. Does anyone know the exact rosin/beeswax recipe? ben munsell

We will do the usual buying, selling, trading, and showing pens so there will be lots of pens of all colors. For driving...

Do you have an inventory of your good pens and pencils? If yes... Is it on paper or computer? What type of data do you include? If it's on computer, which software do you use?

Can anyone assist me in locating this piece? Thanks, Pelikanyo Paul

Had two writing sessions with a pen and paper so far, exceeding my expectations; far better than writing on a computer... in the first session I wrote 8 pages in just over an hour, in the second, not counted yet, but at least as much or even more considering I wrote for just over two hours, both...

I'm having the impression it's cheaper per ink to buy short international cartridges (SIC) than bottle ink. Am I wrong? For the price of a the standard 57ml Parker Quick bottle I can get 180 SICs in black, or 300 SICs in blue. There must be more than 1ml in a SIC, right?

I'm now a new pen-o-phile
