Ink sets a bit in Waterman cartridges. by
Adam Funk
A few years ago I bought several boxes of Waterman brown "Large Size
Standard Cartridges" because the man in the pen shop only had a few
left and thought they were going to be discontinued in the UK.
I'm still using them, but I occasionally get this strange problem: the
ink appears to be stuck in...

Fine nibs for the Parker Reflex by
Bluesea
The Parker Reflex is the most comfortable fp I've ever used, but I retired
mine and got rOtring Cores because the medium nibs were too much for me.
Giving one to a little neighbor for her 10th birthday yesterday afternoon
(her face lit up, she was really happy to receive the pen), prompted me...

DC Supershow video by
Norman Haase
Hi everybody,
I've put up a little video of the show on my website that you might want to
take a gander at. Lighting, sound and the talent of the filmmaker all leave
something to be desired (Scorsese needn't worry about me), but it will
perhaps give those that have never attended a pen show a...

Moleskines by
User1014
Bought some Moleskine's for 2007.
I've heard Noodler's Ink is good with them, what about Pelikan 4001 ?
Finer nibs are probably a good idea so as not to get too much ink down
and therefore get some bleed or whatever you guys call it :-)
Will my mileage vary?

Parker Sonnet Nibs by
Paul G
Hi All,
Anyone familiar with Parker Sonnet nibs? Are they true-to-size? Feed wet
or dry?
Currently use most brand medium nibs, and a "F" in Pelikans. How would
the Sonnet nib run?
Always appreciate the input.
Regards,
Pelikanyo Paul

Pen repair and parts advice? by
LF
Finally put DaBook to use; good to see Frank's signature and read his
advice. It sat, forgotten in a draw for a few years, with an ink
encrusted collection of assorted fountain pens, while I enjoyed a Lami
Safari. I soaked a few pens in water overnight, followed Frank's
advice, and now have a...

Question on Moleskine Daily Diary by

This may be a bit OT, but since there're moleskine users in the group,
I'll try
I have a 2007 moleskine diary (pocket), and I've noticed the phases of
the moon symbols; no problems with that (I think), but what about the
sun symbols? For example, on June 7 there's a sun and "Rus"... what
does it...

Best "Starting"inks by
radarman10
Hi everyone,
I just bought a Rotring 600 Med Nib NOS. Great pen but it's not a good
starter. I've tried several different inks and found Parker basic
black seems the best. Pelikan and Private Reserve both blues, the
worst. But even with the Parker ink it will sometimes still fail to
start even in...

Please accept my apology! by

Wow .. wish all spam was that easy to stop.
I must get 100 emails a day for prescription drugs or some miracle pill to

Do you people think I really want those ads emailed to me?
Why do they hide the content with some obscure subject line?
Do they really think they can fool me into...
