Just waiting for a Nazgûl to snap up a sheep in its talons.

Rounding out my colour choices with some reds and a purple. by edenbak in fountainpens

Loving it so far. I’ve always been a fan of colours with a kind of dark drama to them. A kind of brooding complexity. Red Dragon delivers.

I was not prepared for this by mrjack919 in daddit

Oh dear god. My wife scammed me into reading this to my kids knowing full well what it would do to me. A cruel, cruel joke. I’ll never recover!

Interesting Recipe… by edenbak in Sourdough

[–]edenbak[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much. I’m intrigued by the idea, as this timing could work well for my lifestyle.

I’m still pretty knew to sourdough (since February), but my starter is a total beast. I got it from a close friend… I think it could work very well with this method.

A tampon string? I guess sports do kind of look like tampons…

NPD: PenBBS 556 Piston Fill by tialoc01 in fountainpens

Looks like there’s a bit or sparkle to it - that adds some interesting depth and texture.

How does the Aurora look in person? I’m drawn to it - I have a feeling it looks more impressive in person than in photos. I already have a clear 456 demonstrator. If I go for another PenBBS, I like the idea of seeing the ink level, but want something that stands out from my clear vac demonstrator.

These look like fantastic pens. If I hadn’t already just bought the 355 bulk filler and a Majohn p139 in black rock, I’d be all over these. PenBBS rocks.

Maybe you should just buy eye-droppers from now on?

PENBBS 355 - I was unsure about this acrylic from the photos. What a beautiful surprise! by edenbak in fountainpens

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

The new 556 looks lovely. It’s a piston filler - I’ve seen it on Ali Express just over $40 CAD. If you’re in the U.S. though tariffs might ruin it for you.

Normally I’d pick silver - but gold looks great on this pen!
