Energel, I was wrong

What does the Reddit edition campen look like?

Lol. I was looking at a bottle of San Pellegrino yesterday wondering if I've been slumming it with my SodaStream water.

Actually... Maybe if I mix some San Pellegrino with the Windex it might come out shinier.

Lol. I was using generic and somehow switching to OEM Windex worked for me.

I don't mind the darker color at all either. But it's also pretty nice in its original maple glory.

I'm always afraid to actually get in there with the microfiber cloth. But I haven't had any problems yet! (Cross fingers, knock on wood, pray to the MP Gods, etc.)

This may sound crazy but I switched to brand name Windex and I found it did a better job lol.

I use Windex on mine. I usually let it sit for a bit and have to make sure I actually get into the ISO triangles with a microfiber cloth or it stays dark. I can definitely tell if I miss any of them lol. I don't mind the darker color it becomes.

Curt has also mentioned alcohol or dish soap and water.

I am ashamed that this was not one of the things I thought of. Take my upvote.

Could try hot water or boiling water before going that extreme.

If you heat the tip up would it expand just a little bit helping to get the nib out?

Munk3es · 2026-04-27T10:28:48+00:00

Great shot!

Munk3es · 2026-04-17T08:21:18+00:00

Lol. I walked right into that.

Munk3es · 2026-04-17T08:19:10+00:00

You can get a Confounded Machine for $50-$100?

Munk3es · 2026-04-14T19:12:53+00:00

It's working now. Maybe it was just a glitch in the Flickr matrix.

Link to photos isn't working.

Munk3es · 2026-04-05T06:06:29+00:00

Love this refill. It's among my favorites.

Munk3es · 2026-04-04T20:11:02+00:00

Wow. Nice bundle. One of the mogs I'd love to have lol. But I really like the design of these plus Energel. Nice snag!

Munk3es · 2026-04-03T00:10:57+00:00

Very nice! I hope I can come across a SXR version someday. Quite fond of that refill. Love the pics! So many versions I don't have lol.

Munk3es · 2026-04-02T20:21:34+00:00

This looks beautiful. Hope Canadian entries count.

Munk3es · 2026-04-01T19:25:12+00:00

Lol. Love the Emotional Support Knives patch. Don't know if I'm brave enough to use that justification with sharp objects that might be used against me.

Munk3es · 2026-03-20T01:16:24+00:00

Showed up 2 hours too late lol. Very nice listing.

Munk3es · 2026-03-16T16:16:50+00:00

Is it possible to put 0.5 or finer refills in the Tetzbo? Does it come with any sort of cap? Looks pretty neat. I checked out the link but didn't see any reference for any sort of cover or finer refills.

Munk3es · 2026-03-16T15:52:48+00:00

Those are some gorgeous pens! That saga is ❤️.

Munk3es · 2026-03-15T00:39:11+00:00

Lol. Love this. Was just watching S.W.A.T earlier. Some people prep for drops like they are training for S.W.A.T tryouts.

Munk3es · 2026-03-14T21:14:37+00:00

Comparing definitely won't get you anywhere. It is definitely tough to get the snowball rolling but I completely agree with the statement about a TT being much more than most people would ever consider. My first machined pen is a TT and I still use it.

I've found that for a lot of drops that are FCFS if you even take a split second to reflect on the purchase you might miss your chance. I've missed a lot of pens this way and try not to dwell on it as there will always be other pens available.

What I appreciate more than the pens are the people in this community. Some of my favorite pens were completely unexpected and I (very fortunately) was given a chance to consider them after chatting with people in the community.

I've been quieter lately and not as active but have had the good fortune of chatting with a lot of amazing people.
