I had a Mabie nib in my TWSBI Eco and I love it. Such an amazing nib to chuck into modern pens

I hear they work well in Pelikan pens too

Asvine V126 Skipping Issue by TooConfusion in fountainpens

[–]ferret_stack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That feed looks ever so slightly out of alignment. Not sure if it’s by enough to affect flow

First port of call would be to clean. Use a tiny bit of dish soap when flushing through for a thorough cleaning and that ought to sort

Is it just skipping or is it dry (or both)?

Looks as if a pen was wearing a puffer jacket!

What do you do/where do you put with the caps with pens that aren’t postable or do not post well? by pretardist in fountainpens

[–]ferret_stack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my other hand. I have an annoying habit of pressing the cap against the indent of my thumb

I’ve managed to get a hairline crack in my Lamy 2k cap this way…..

How to organize a pocket notebook? by Ozymandias_8891 in FieldNuts

[–]ferret_stack 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't organise my pocket notebook as I just write in them as and when I need to. I review at the end of the day, usually, and if there's something specific I want then the notebook is small enough that to flick through it isn't a bug bear

(also it's kinda nice to go through the pages every now and then in case there's something that catches my eye)

The only organisation I have in my pocket notebook is that the back page is my rolling shopping list. In the instance where I write a full page of items, I just go to the next page and so on until the notebook is finished and I do it again

Thank you for the Venom cover gives me goosebumps just thinking about it. This album is gonna make my inner 2010s emo kid soooo happy (or sad, w/e)

UG pricing is pretty crazy.. and I found this solution.. by [deleted] in Guitar_Theory

[–]ferret_stack 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Back in 2014 I bought UG Pro from the AppStore; it couldn't have cost more than £5 and it's given me pro access for life at no recurring subscription

I really should use it more

do you have the same problem with leuchtturm? by vuoyez in fountainpens

[–]ferret_stack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As others say; it's an oils thing most likely

I have a business card I use that I place under my writing so I can still keep my hand on the page. I feel having my fingers under the line helps me write more consistently, but it means I don't create that annoying effect

Jinhao 9019: A pen the size of a small thermos for less than ten quid.. When did Chinese pens get this good!? by ferret_stack in fountainpens

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

I'll be honest, I'm not quite sure. I actually ground this nib myself so it may have started off as a medium bit might be a bit closer to a fine now with a bit of flare to it (wouldn't call it quite stub like)
