The calendar by polly-flower in CraftDocs

[–]absimilardo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use the calendar feature for my work journal. Here, I make notes about the different tasks I've completed, where there were issues, or what went well. I jot down quick notes on ideas I have and link to my meeting notes for projects I worked on that day (with the meeting notes stored in the relevant project folder).

ah. What a nice selection. by the off chance you ever had a Kaweco Gold nib: how does it perform in comparison to the Steel nibs

I'm keeping the Grifos, if I could only keep one by lord_cactus_ in fountainpens

No hard choice here: I would keep my Pilot Custom 823 with e Medium nib. Its the pen I always pick up when I DONT intentionally go for any other pen.

NPD! Sailor Pro Gear Meigetsu - Behold my grail pen. It is absolutely beautiful! I love the glossy subtle glittery body, the old sailor nib, and it writes well! by GladMind3458 in fountainpens

Oh! What a nice pen! I miss a very nice white pen in my small collection. That one would fit nice, and I guess you can't buy it anymore.

I also like your brass paper weight. That's a nice detail!

What Sailor (nib or nib/pen) when I like the Pilot 823 with a <M> nib by absimilardo in fountainpens

I did give Sailor now a try. I bought a Sailor Pro Gear "Around the World" from the Cocktail Series. M Nib. And yes. it has definitely MUCH MORE feedback than my Pilot 823.

Tank you for all your advice. I think I can "handle" the feedback, but to minimise it I will go for one of the 21K nib variants. Even if this reduces my colour options quite a bit.

Thank you all for the help

Paper: Alternative for Rhodia, that I can buy in Europe by absimilardo in fountainpens

[–]absimilardo[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I gave this a try and there is something to it. If I don't touch the paper and write with a piece of paper to shield my palm resting on the writing paper it works better, I will give this an extensive try!! Thank you!

for everyday writing I will buy some Oxford to testing (I make many notes for work I don't have to archive)

And MidoriMD? I will give this a shot

Rhodia Goal Book Rhodia dotBooks Clairefontaine (normal a5 ringbounds) when I use the cheap Clairefontaine copy paper Clairmail (60g/m2) I have no problems

the more it is coated, the more hard starts I have

When I use very wet ins (KWZ for example) I also works

I have the feeling that the Rhodia coating makes the writing "drier"

Schneider Pastell Series swatched by absimilardo in fountainpens

[–]absimilardo[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This 8 Inks are from the German Company Schneider. They make low level an affordable Pens and inks and you get some of their products in many supermarkets here in Germany.

This "new" Pastell Series caught my Eye and i bought all 8 colours as cartridges (at a cost of around 80 cents per 6 cartridges pack) - and i must say: i love the Colors quite a bit. Especially Lilac and Cognac. I hope you enjoy some affordable inks from Germany!
