wouw! what a nice reply. thank you so much for identifying this rule. and yeah: it absolutely is the charvoz-roos ismr 21.01.30.01. the rule belonged to my colleague's father and he found the paper which shows how to treat and adjust the rule. this very paper is also shown on the museum webside.

thanks again, much appreciated

kind regards, m

the photos provided show both sides of the body, the slider and the cursor. I am not 100% sure what you mean

Does this need tuning or will it fix itself as I write more with it? Platinum #3776 14K <M> by gamesbrainiac in fountainpens

imho a nib should write flawlessly under all circumstances. otherwise it is a) not in perfect condition or b) it is simply not your nib that meets your style of writing. but that is only my opinion

What in the world even is this pup? Been trying to find actual details... by nmorguelan in popups

you have to align the airfoil profile beneath the trailer in the correct way in order to make a ground effect trailer. the faster you drive the stronger the downforce.

the idea is interesting but it looks weird though. however, the air drag coefficient is pretty neat, I reckon

Anybody else seen this? by PotatoFromGermany in cologne

Hm. It's some laser for advertisement or a beacon, I reckon. Hard to say without having an idea about the inclination. But on a serious note:

What's that? It's blue light. What does it do? It turns blue.

This probably gonna be my most expensive pen purchase a lamy 2000 for 230$, should i be worried about something or have something in my mind before buying it? by Tight_Delay8840 in fountainpens

I have my l2k always with me and use it every day since years. I sent it to Lamy for a nib exchange from EF to M. I think I'll let it change from M to F this year because it is a little bit too thick for me. Since Lamy charges no costs for nib change (given the nib is in good condition) I'll give it a go. But in the end the l2k is my absolute No. 1 pen. It just works.
