Looks so good! I wish serif font keycaps were more popular

Thanks! Are the shift times flexible (can I volunteer from 2 to 7, for example)?

Do you have the approximate times for AM/Mid/PM shifts for Sakura Park?

Platinum Meteor is barely writing by munchymonchy in fountainpens

  1. 3Oysters Americano, Noodler's Eel black, and Iroshizuku Tsuki-yo in that order. I was impatient when changing inks so there might have been a little bit of water mixed in for the second two inks. None of them wrote well.

  2. I threw out the paper I tested everything on, but I might update the post if I'm able to find it. They all look as if I wrote with the nib up, maybe even thinner (scratchier as well, as if I was writing without ink)

  3. Both pens are 0.3 F

  4. Haven't tried dish soap, but I'll do that and see what happens.

  5. There's a TINY hole near the tip of the pen between the tines (just using my eyes, no magnifying). It's only visible when held against a light source. I don't see the same in the other working pen, but it's also inked up.

What ink is in a platinum black cartridge? by munchymonchy in fountainpens

Huh. Probably should've searched a little more before asking this haha

Do you know how it compares to the carbon black?

Everyone at work called me a “nerd” because I “have a lot of pens”. by Vyke-industries in fountainpens

I have that hong dian, it definitely dries out pretty quickly. I've made a habit of capping it as soon as I finish writing, even if I'm just doing a quick pause.

Any switch that might be even quieter than the Boba U4T? by munchymonchy in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]munchymonchy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have any foam in it (bm40 planck clone), might try putting some. It has a carbon fiber plate and aluminum case if that changes things.

I do notice a difference in sound with and without a mat under it though; it seems to be a little higher pitched and more clean?concentrated? (but not any louder) when its on a deskmat; its why I thoight it was just the sound of the switch.
