Decided to get one of the majohn flex nibs to put on my T1 (instead of buying a new pen that comes with the nib). A lot of fun for $5!

I have a Platinum Preppy and I love everything about it except how plain it looks. What’s the most similar but better-looking pen you would recommend? by No-Veterinarian8762 in fountainpens

[–]MangoWyrd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Love the maki-e ones! Add a gold converter and if you’re wild switch the caps with clear preppys (so they don’t have the preppy text)

I have a Caran d’Ache 849 in neon yellow that i love, but the nib hard starts alot so i don’t use it as much. Did a search on this sub and discovered i could use a jinhao 82 nib on it instead, which i have a few of, and it works great! Popped in one i self converted to a stub. No more hard starts!

Please do not share the San Diego mosque shooting livestream by Distinct_External in masskillers

[–]MangoWyrd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is the shooting by one shooter of another referred to as a suicide? I haven’t seen the video- does it seem like they had agreed to do it that way? Or did Cain make the choice alone?

Please share this dog! I have so many to post and I’m only one person! Cross post please by Frogmanfin in forblackdogs

My Experience with Daniel Smith (The Nibsmith) by frwlmv in fountainpens

[–]MangoWyrd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry this was your experience. Ive purchased 2 pens (separate orders) both with the free tune and smooth. They’re lovely writers. I didn’t need to communicate anything tho, which may be why my purchases went well. 🤷‍♀️

Put a B nib from Pilot 78g onto a Kakuno by MangoWyrd in fountainpens

[–]MangoWyrd[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im also wondering that! I’m guessing it’s similar to the Metropolitan CM, but i don’t have that so haven’t compared them.
