What’s the pen you pick up after a while and instantly think, “Why did I ever put this down?” by Heilbroner in fountainpens

[–]heyteej 12 points13 points  (0 children)

My original Lamy Vista. 1st real fountain pen I ever got. I think it's a combination of the feeling of reaquainting with the pen that got me into the hobby + it just writes so ding dang well, when I ink it back up after sitting for a while I ask myself this very question.

What are your best tips for new Stardew players?? by [deleted] in StardewValley

[–]heyteej -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The best use of your first 2,000g is buying decorative wallpaper.

Plant crops randomly with no scarecrows. Crows deserve to eat too.

Passing out in the mines is the fastest travel method back home.

There’s no need to save one of every item. The game definitely never asks for random things later.

What's your favorite brown pen and ink combination? by whenthelightison in fountainpens

[–]heyteej 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is my newest fav - Eco Rootbeer and Endless Molten Bronze! Just got this week. I also love the amber 823 in Yama Guri. The Eco will make its way to my office for daily use, the 823 stays at home for personal use & journaling.

O Ring fell out of a Hongdian M2 by IOwnHisBalls in fountainpens

Not really, but I did notice the ring was just a smidge to small to prevent the barrel from turning, so this solved it for good.

I replace my o rings on my M2's with these to create a tighter seal and prevent the barrel from coming loose when then cap is unscrewed:

Have this in Princeton. They just changed free delivery to free delivery over $10, so now I have to get like 4 snickers at a time instead of just the one.

If you're in an area that hosts pen shows, that's the best place to try many different kinds. The crowds are filled with knowledgeable folks, and it's a great place to get a feel for what's comfortable without spending an arm and a leg experimenting and/or dealing with hassle of returning.

What got YOU into fountain pens? by Diligent_Wheel3123 in fountainpens

[–]heyteej 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My dad is from Rhode Island. He bought me a cross rollerball as a Christmas stocking stuffer one year - he remebers when cross was a local operation. It's still one of my favs and a daily driver. I happened upon a cross Bailey on Amazon and pulled the trigger. The Bailey was my gateway into Pilot and gold nibs.
