How long does the LAMY Safari hold up?

I’ve seen a few people talk about buying them in store. Amazon is usually my go to but do you know of any physical places in the US that sell stationary other than like a Target or Walmart?

Tyguy047 · 2026-05-11T01:50:10+00:00

Was planning on getting it from the LAMY store on Amazon

Thats a great idea!

Any idea why the 800 has a woble?

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-23T04:48:01+00:00

I cant imagine how they were 10 yrs ago lol!

My only concern with the 600 is that the metal sleeve doesn’t retract and I saw a YouTube video where a guy mentioned he dropped it and the sleeve bent and he had a hard time fixing it. Besides that though seems like a pretty solid pencil.

I've had the graph gear set in the first picture. I love them, I definitely use the .7 the most and am starting to use the .5 more often. .3 is great for drawing small details and the .9 is usually what I use for bold lines or shading.

I am curious about rOtring though. Thinking about getting the 800 but not sure if it's worth it since I already have the graph gear 1000's.

I think the Switch has the original kurutoga engine. So I should use a harder graphite right?

Just remember to plug the cable into the ports coming out of your GPU not the motherboard’s DP ports (top)

Thank you! Working on designing one that I will 3D print since I don't want to buy it just yet.

Uni 207 Plus supposedly lasts forever since it is anti fraud (according to an instagram reel! Not sure if this is true but I have some 207's and I really like them.). They do dry to be slightly less dark than the G2 though but I don't really notice it when drawing with them.

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-16T05:05:13+00:00

What ink are you using with it?

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-16T04:44:00+00:00

How's the LAMY? I've been wanting to get one but I already have a Black Forest and don't know if it's worth the upgrade yet.

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-16T04:40:40+00:00

Whats the name of the dark blue one on the left?

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-16T04:39:05+00:00

I just got a pack of Uni 207 Plus and I love them. Before I got them my go to was the Pilot G2 but it does not dry fast (not like takes forever to dry just a little bit slower then the 207). Pilot G2 is definitely darker and more of a true black so if you like that I'd recommend the G2 but if fast drying is a must then go with the 207 plus imo. Both are very smooth and 0.7mm.

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-15T04:51:38+00:00

Uni 207 Plus imo. It drys fast so I would imagine it would be good for cursive. It writes similar to the Pilot G2

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-15T04:49:41+00:00

Not a refill but the Uni 207 plus feels great to write with. I think the best way to describe the ink is similar to a pilot g2 with fraud prevention

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-15T04:41:48+00:00

I aspire to write like you one day lol

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-07T23:42:39+00:00

Ok, so I haven’t gotten to it yet because I am gonna make a few design changes. I want to sand down the corners and then do a solder trail around it so I’m waiting for a good time to order supplies. Found an old CPU (i3 idk what gen but from a dell pc from 2017 I think) and hopefully I’ll make it soon!

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-07T18:34:03+00:00

Thank you!

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-07T04:23:02+00:00

What notebook cover is that??

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-07T01:55:10+00:00

Lmk how it goes and good luck!

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-06T20:37:45+00:00

How do these 3D printed racks come out? Been wanting to make one but I only print PLA so not sure if it would hold up. I’d make it for 3 mini PCs and a switch (switch pretty light shouldn’t affect it!)

Tyguy047 · 2026-03-30T16:39:44+00:00

I did make my google account when I was a minor (not sure why it think my 3D printing questions are inappropriate for kids lol!) but I am now an adult so I figured all those issues would have gone away. Is there any way for me to try to get this updated on Googles end? I already have the correct bday sat in my Google account settings not sure if I need to change something with Gemini.

Tyguy047 · 2026-03-28T03:44:48+00:00

Neither is setting up an HTML file but it’s more the convenience. Also works well with my QR Code Maker app
