Pop Survey (Revised - please ignore the other one if you see it) by
Bluesea
How many bottles of green ink do you have, what brands are they, and if you
could have only one, which would it be and why?
Me: 2 bottles total: Parker and Sheaffer. If I could only have one, I'd
pick the Skrip because of the shade.

Caran d'Ache clutch pencil genuine? by
Richard Wright
Picked up a clutch pencil that purports to be a Caran d'Ache.
Had associated that brand with gold plate and silver, but what I
picked up is chromium plated.
Stamped into the pushing gadget is
+CARAN D'ACHE+SWISS MADE+
Decorative engraving on the hexagonal facets is very shallow compared

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...

Kevin Gowen
While cleaning out my home office, I found a Pilot Custom 74 that I
had received as a gift several years ago. The converter is missing, and
a quick web search has just brought up converters for the Vanishing
Point series. Would this converter work, or is there another I should
use? Please...

I have recently come into possession of three fountain pens. One of
them is a St Dupont brown Chinese lacquer pen in the original box. The
nib seems to be tagged 18kt and it was made in France. It also has the
original tag in the box that indicates that it is a No 28573Y.
How can I find out...

Copy of an email discussion that I thought might be useful to the pen
collecting public

Actually, I've tried your method with Pelikan refills-taking out the
soft
plastic plug, washing it through and then filling with an ink of my
choice.
I've not had good experience with this, though....

Flying Colors pen refill by
Neko2
I recently picked up a "Flying Colors SYntech" pen made by Jakks Pacific
(a toy company). So far the refill (now living in my Rotring 600 BP) is
writing quite smoothly. It's like a cross between gel and ballpoint.
I had actually purchased the pen but it unscrews in about 6 parts and
eventually...

Parker 45 sac by
John B. Egger
Does anyone know, offhand, what sac fits this pen? For my first attempt
at ordering and replacing a sac, I ordered a #16, based on the base
diameter, but it's way too big. It looks as if I need a tapered one.

Sheaffer Touchdown repair by

My first repair attempt, on a Sheaffer Touch-down pen.
I replaced the sac with a new one (from Pendemonium). The old one was
solid. I replaced the O-ring with a new one.
The pen now fills very small amounts of ink, perhaps 3/4 inch of the
section is filled with ink (there is a transparent part in...
