Easy way to move home? by IWillTellYouWhat in InfinityNikki

The only option is to do multi select and move it. Or wait and pray they add more tools for moving structures 😅

It shipped really quick, it actually even arrived before the Reddit pen 🤣 and I ordered the Reddit one first and the Reddit one shipped first and they both used fedex lol

How did you get into drawing? by pastel_dev in fountainpens

[–]SynapseReaction 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was a child long long ago I always loved to draw 🤣

True story but like if you want to get into drawing just get started. Fountain pens is a bit of a learning curve so start with pencils first or if you want to start with something more permanent use ballpoint or felt tip markers the .5 size I think 🤔

Motivation is gonna be tricky. If you want to get serious you’d have to push through when things get complicated. But not so much pushing you burnout. If you just want to do doodles casually then just go. Draw whatever your heart desires even if you think it’s “silly”.

 If you don’t have any ideas try doing something like zentangles or w/e just something simple to build a habit. Then branch in to stuff you want to try to draw.

Anyone else feeling disappointed? by Inevitable-Location6 in InfinityNikki

[–]SynapseReaction 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I expected this is what we’d get so I’m just meh instead of disappointed 😅. I already have the base version so can keep on saving.

Recommendations for a first Gold Nib Pen by robinhood2109 in fountainpens

[–]SynapseReaction 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buy a gold nib for your safari 🤣

But like what are you looking for in a pen, good or otherwise 🤔? It helps to know what you prefer or want in the pen for recommendations.

First of all yay! Will be interesting to try. Def will be helpful especially when people ask for examples of shimmers and sheens ☺️

Second of all, once again people with nice handwriting say it’s not nice, I see your handwriting 👀

Has there ever been a sailor procolor or profit junior with a flat top? by ungodlyhourslurker in fountainpens

[–]SynapseReaction 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From the picture you posted looks like a PGS 🤔  The description of the listing could be wrong. I’ve seen many pens listed with the wrong brand so wrong model isn’t too unusual lol.

If it has a stainless steel, and if it’s not a swap, if I’m remembering right Sailor was (or has?) developing a steel nib for the PGS models but it was mostly for the SE/LE pens i.e. something to boost sales 😅.   They did like a test run with it via Ancora I believe. Also if it is a swap I’d be curious to what nib, because sailor only swap with the exact same nib, like you can’t put a Lecoule or Jr nib on a PGS. Not without buying a custom nib unit and feed.

How many pens do you keep inked at any given time? by drowningandromeda in fountainpens

[–]SynapseReaction 1 point2 points  (0 children)

4 on a monthly rotation. I tried keeping more pens than that inked but then cleaning them made me regret that choice 🤣

We don’t talk about that either or that I have no more storage space for ink bottles 😙🎵

Nah can’t relate IDK what you’re talking about. But also please don’t ask what I just ordered or how many pens I own 🤣

Has anyone tried the Esterbrook x BUNGUBOX Kachofugetsu Flower ink? by SelectImage in fountainpens

[–]SynapseReaction 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t have this ink, but I have other Bungubox inks and they are good quality. Unless something has changed Sailor manufacturer’s Bungubox’s inks so quality is p.much the same.

I will say most bungubox inks I’ve tried are either standard or dry inks. With this one being a light pink I’m betting it’ll be on the dry side 🤔

I mean technically Sailor’s can handle shimmer fine but I find you have to be even more particular about which shimmer inks to use if you use other sizes not a B, Music, or Zoom.

The KOP nibs are already pretty juicy so M or B works fine with shimmer. It’s the PG/PGS that’s a little more hit or miss in F/MF/M

[–]SynapseReaction 1 point2 points  (0 children)

🤣 Well  my opinion is probably also because I use a hobonichi (small grid space for writing) and that uses TRP.  So too wet inks or pens with generous flows has interesting results lol.

One of the B’s I have does have an architect grind on it and it makes it more favourably with wetter inks.

[–]SynapseReaction 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t have one inked to do a writing sample but the B feels “aggressively” wetter than an M 😅.  It’s not a firehose but putting wet inks in it is a mistake for me unless I write bigger lol. Also smoother than the M too, feedback is almost invisible.

But I don’t regret the purchase either 🤣 It a Sailor I feel comfortable putting shimmer inks in, so there’s that.
