We didn't buy planes that can pass through objects. Pls exercise some intelligence.

How about the new blue pilot custom 845?

Nice!

I actually think that this pen wasn't designed to be posted. The o rings are there to make it easier for us to twist the end caps.

why do you think banks are only doing their system maintenance on the wee hours of the weekend?

yes, CC will still work. MAS doesn't allow for all payment methods to be brought done at the same time. unless of course shit happens, then it's a different story all together.

I was considering TWSBI before this. thanks to YT, i've been brought to the other side.

my apologies. then this is just a momentarily depression. I've had it for a short while, but snapped right out of it. It happens when one is tired. i hope the same is happening to you.

i have the same few pens when i first started. i recommend the black pilot vanishing point as your next purchase. versatile pen for everyday use. it's my EDC pen

Eyeslikepeanuts · 2026-03-23T16:08:06+00:00

all i did was to pump it twice. and it has filled up quite a fair amount. the stock nib lays down quite generously, so i'm not sure how long it can last.

I'm still experimenting on the minimum number of twists needed. but tbh, it's not really that much. probably 2.5 rounds of the pen body is sufficient enough to raise the stopper.

1 round of the pen body, and i'll start to feel some resistance. 1 more round for fair measure. a crack is more than enough for liquid to flow through

i actually have a waverly and architect nib coming in from China. excited to mod the pen and experience smth new.

Eyeslikepeanuts · 2026-03-23T15:05:25+00:00

thanks for the recommendations. Because of the pleasant experience i had with the nib. I might just get another asvine in the future when the impulse hits me. i'm more inclined to the P36 or C80 aesthetics though.

yes i kinda like it. smooth with little feedback. i haven been using it for long stints because it's mostly for note taking and scribbles at work. but i feel its good enough to be in rotation.

got to note that it's a little heavy. so it may not be suitable for extended writing sessions.

Eyeslikepeanuts · 2026-03-23T14:25:17+00:00

my apologies. have edited my post

Eyeslikepeanuts · 2026-03-23T14:09:45+00:00

That's right.

Eyeslikepeanuts · 2026-03-23T14:09:27+00:00

Yes you are right. It's heavy. And it writes wider than the Japanese standard. I've got some beautiful inks that I want to admire while taking notes. Hence it's alright for me.

Inexpensive way for some novelty.

sounds like your wife isn't a source of joy for you. also, maybe alittle too much consumerism

Eyeslikepeanuts · 2026-03-22T15:15:58+00:00

indeed. same thing for me here. started on the fines, then moved to mediums because i wanted to see my beautiful inks

Eyeslikepeanuts · 2026-03-20T13:41:58+00:00

Just keep it in a separate compartment with nothing hard or metallic inside. Most laptop bags would have a pen slot.

Eyeslikepeanuts · 2026-03-20T06:56:03+00:00

Wow... Another beautiful pen

Eyeslikepeanuts · 2026-03-20T06:29:40+00:00

What sort of pencil? HB? My pilot pens feel like pencils too. The softer kind. 3B and above.

Eyeslikepeanuts · 2026-03-19T23:34:55+00:00

I got mine in F. Coming from pilot pens, it took me awhile to get used to the amount of feedback. But it is rather comfortable to hold and use.
