REQ: Post your favorite pen!
Hey Everyone,
So, it's been quiet here, but I was just thinking that it would be really cool if everyone could post up pictures of their favorite pens, either their favorite no-use pen or their favorite pen that they use to write with, maybe both? It would be interesting to see what everyone uses, as well as the condition of the pen. Besides, I haven't seen enough action in alt.binaries.pens-pencils. :-) Aaron W.

I got it in 2008, and it soon became a favourite. -- replace zzz with 99 |

It's a Cross Radiance (M), showing the signs of the ~5 years it's spent in my pocket. I treat my pens gently, but 4 years of jacking it in and out of its pouch finally snapped the stem of the derby, due to the slight levering action of the Radiance's fat cap band. The pen now wears a flat-banded Solo cap -- and that's wearing away, too. The top of the pellet is smoothed into an approximate XF, and the pen is always filled with Noodler's Black. BTW, the other side of the pouch carries a Radiance SelecTip with a liquid roller refill. It's intact, albeit with a funky patina, because it's never used. -- Brian |

I thought I had some photos of my daily writer around here, but I guess not. I'll have to get some new ones up. Aaron W. Hsu -- A professor is one who talks in someone else's sleep. |

I have two favs: The first is my everyday pen I carry at work and
general purpose a Waterman Expert II Ballpoint. The other is a Black with Palladium Shaeffer Legacy II. kwhiner On Mar 11, 8:20*pm, "Aaron W.

I was wondering, do you find the transition from ballpoint to fountain pen and back difficult? I always found it difficult, which was why I moved to using a fountain pen as my daily writer. Aaron W.
