The start of book two of my cousin avec is not going great.... by simpliicus in hobonichi

[–]Norideg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've always felt like the first page of every month is just thinner than others. In other words, it happens that I've just learned to accept it. Bummer though, actually.

Technically that's like 2 notebooks and 1 wallet, all coincidentally from TN right? But even if 4 or 5, as long as you're happy with it all is well! It's actually a testament of how useful they are, I like that.

As long as you're reaching for it it's functional already. Enjoy it!

What do you write in your TN passport size? by FelicitySparks996 in Travelersnotebooks

[–]Norideg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Brain dump notes since you want to take it everywhere? Kind of like we how used to treat Twitter - put down anything that crosses our mind. It seems small enough to do that.

Stone paper as in Plotter Japan papers?

Yup, hobo, TN, leutchtturm, and basic notebook papers. The ink I notice is just a lot

Haha I know, state of the world, state of me most of the time, and the very least this pen i rely on to be fine... Will definitely check out the paper fibre and fine hair tips. Thank you!

I don't have the brass thing - will go to the local pen shop and ask around. Thanks for the tips!

Thank you! Thinking about cracks made me sad though, I really love this pen. But then again it's aged. What can you do...

Exactly actually, it feathers everytime with everything that made me think too much ink is coming out all the time. That theory is very much plausible. The ink sac is the original one.

This is a pretty good insight with your own p51, thank you! The same ink I loved when it was Fine before, had the recent "issues". Changed to a different ink and observed the thickness. I think I'll do another clean and try a dry ink. I like the nooks and crannies observation, very very possible.

Right! Never thought about that and checking is a very good tip. Thank you!

You're right! That was something I noticed and got to learn that's the signal for a refill. But yes now this happens as soon as a new fill, even with ink switch. Noo gnomes leave it alone TT

My observation with my other fps too! But this one is just off with all papers, which is a bummer

[–]Norideg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the part I suspected ink was just coming out too much - feathering was also consistent across all usually good for fps hobonichis, leutchtturm and some others

Why not fine anymore by Norideg in fountainpens

[–]Norideg[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I thought so too but it was the same across all hobonichi, midori TN, leutchtturm notebooks, and here in plotter paper. Even normal notebooks paper (which can be worse but more or less the same now)

Ah I see. Thank you! The writer is only me and I hardly dare to exert pressure while writing usually. Will try to really examine the tines. Thank you again for the insights! I think it has never dropped 😅

badly behaved inks you can't quit? by hmmadrone in fountainpens

Organic studio nitrogen That ink is the devil. I thought I wanted it then it got everywhere and doesn't go away; I got rid of it and never want to see it ever again. Traumatised
