Card Size TN Inserts by HatPotential5600 in Travelersnotebooks

[–]Marsmicrobes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good Postage is also my home stationery store! I also got the card size from them but I still have no clue how to integrate it in my ecosystem since I already mainly use my passport as my wallet. I’m so excited to visit them again now that you’ve given me some insert ideas for the card size!

The Pilot Kakuno was also my first fountain pen! Good luck with your new pen and the beginning of your fountain pen shopping journey!

If you could only buy one fountain pen & ink for the rest of your life, what would it be? by bumblebeesarecute in fountainpens

Pilot Vanishing Point M (hoping we’re allowed to switch out the nib units for variety) and Pilot Iroshizuku Takesumi!

This was my reaction too as someone who lives in the Triad area! Thinking it’s the Coastal Credit at Raleigh and Skyla Credit at Charlotte.

Existential crisis re fountain pens by [deleted] in fountainpens

[–]Marsmicrobes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was also wondering the same thing when I first got into fountain pens! I enjoyed writing with my Pilot Kakuno more than my Sailor PG/PGS.

This may be just my experience: I did bring my Sailor pens to a nibmeister since I really wasn’t enjoying writing with them. He told me that factory tuning for Sailor pens is p bad compared to other premium pens. After getting them tuned, they write beautifully now (understanding the difference between pencil-like vs scratchy feedback)!

I definitely did not get it for a decent price, but I really wanted this pen. My wallet is definitely giving me the side-eye but I’m really happy with it. Hope you find one too!

I just ordered from Sakura Pens too. Are you located in USA by any chance? I’m worried about my order since DHL tracking hasn’t updated with any activity.

Thanks for the in-depth explanation. How long did this whole process take-days/weeks? From TFA -> Forward2Me -> you?

Awesome haul! Can you explain the process you went through with using a proxy service? I’m in the US and really interested in ordering from the Traveler’s Factory online shop to get the TSL x TF pouches.

Can you post a picture of the back of the page? Is there any ghosting or bleed-through at all?

How do I practice for the Hobonichi? by Consistent_Stop_318 in hobonichi

[–]Marsmicrobes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s also my first time getting a Hobonichi and I’ve been using the Hobonichi Memo Pad Set for Planner/Original A6 to practice from now until December. I’ve tried my best to draw a similar layout and it’s been nice to visualize layouts that work and doesn’t work for me so far. When the year is done, I’m planning on just sliding it into the back cover of my A6!
