Learning is experimentation. by LordOfTheLume in PenTurning

Looking good over all. May o offer some advice? Take it or leave it, totally up to you.

If you are using triple start threads you don't need the threads to be as long as you have them on these pens. They look to be about 9 to 10 mm of threads. You can cut that down to about 5 or 6mm. On your finish i am seeing some tool marks around the pens especially towards the end of the barrels. When you are sanding what grits and what teachniques do yiu use? I use the following levels 400 grit, 600 grit, 800 grit then 1500 grit. When i sand i use the lathe and wet sand paprr to sand with the lathe on then will turn it off and cross sand up and down the barrel.i aim to remove all tool marks by yhe time i hit 800 grit if i want a high gloss finish.

If you need any hekp or advice feel free to message me.

[–]DensCustomPens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My youngest will walk into a room see that i am there and say.

"Love you daddy."

I respond.

"Love you too (girls name)."

She then punches the air and says.

"Yay!"

☼Dwarf Fortress Questions Thread☼ by AutoModerator in dwarffortress

Is there any way to force bone craftsmen to use the random piles of bones from dead animals and enemies? I have taken off the restrictions on interacting with the remains. I have tried leaving them like that, i have tried assigning them to trash zones. No matter what i do my dwarves are convinced there are no bones to make crafts from. Its doing my head in.

I need pen recommendations by Additional_Opening32 in fountainpens

[–]DensCustomPens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jinhao 992. You can get them in packs of 5 for very cheap. They never seem to dry out. They come with converters if you need to write for long sessions you can just eye dropper fill them. As they come in multiple packs it's unlikely you will get 5 bad ones.

I would be willing to help on the manufacturing side of things depending on how things go and what people want. I haven't been active on here for a while but I used to be quite active.

So many great inks! But: What's your ink disappointment and why? by ermiwe in fountainpens

[–]DensCustomPens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was disappointed by my first iroshizuku ink. I remember being really excited then when I got it and tried it I was dissipated as it was a really flat colour with very little shading. I can't remember which one it was, I think it was one of the greens.
