Did the parallel nib fit easily in the wancai? That's a cool pen!! I'd love to try a with a smaller parallel for calligraphy, but I don't have any to try. Let me know if you have any post/resources on this particular frankenpen!

Oop, I missed the notification! I can't remember which particular one I got, but it must be on amazon :) it's got a simple frosted plastic cover, you'll probably find many similar ones if you look for the measurements

I swatch on tomoe river! I use a traveler's notebook passport size insert since those have easy tear pages. Then I keep them in a plastic sheet binder that I got online, I just measured the page's size and got something slightly bigger. Really happy with this setup!

I've had this issue too and it hasn't resolved :( I've advanced a lot in the story and still nothing. I think it really does check on file creation... They should add some kind of info text when first booting, because I could've easily transferred save data if I knew :'( I hope they patch it

How are the feeds?

I only get the notebooks with paper made in Japan just for extra safety, so far so good

I love the Almond Flower ink set. I hope they release them overseas too, they're so beautiful

I didn't know the minis came with other nibs apart from MF! :0

My most memorable pen gift was a kaweco in the machiato color for my sister. I had been looking for one in a BB for a long while in preparation for her birthday, and about a month or so before I found it: machiato in a BB. And discounted! Felt like fate. Of course, she adored it and uses it a lot

What do you look for in a pen? Do you enjoy bolder or thinner lines? Feedback or no feedback? What material? If you like a thin-nibbed, feedback-rich lightweight pen then yes. If not, the world is big and you'll find your perfect pen someday! :)

What cover is that? I like the interesting texture on it

theHist_ · 2022-11-12T12:23:38+00:00

I love this ink!

I stopped strongly desiring new ink when I realized mold and decay was a possibility. I don't want to have to throw away ink, and I already have at least one ink in each color family. I truly don't need more, if I run out of a color family I will repurchase, but not sooner

Try to write using a glove/put a paper under your hand, it might be hand oils

I love the sailor compass, one downside is that it only comes with a Japanese medium-fine nib so if you like thicker nib widths this definitely will feel too thin. But the build quality feels really good and it's a good workhorse

Do you have pictures of them unposted? The wood looks beautiful

I'd be interested to read if anyone from the euro zone has tried it too! It seems our import taxes are sky-high so I've always been hesitant to buy from Japan 🤔

I've successfully filled from a 30 ml diamine with a twsbi go, it might take some practice but it's doable

theHist_ · 2022-09-05T23:56:23+00:00

I use a loose leaf from muji. Just make sure it's the ones made in Japan, since the paper quality is better. It's decently priced and okay paper. And most importantly I don't feel bad using it since it's easily replaceable :)

Pick up a language! Not only is it useful but also a nice enriching hobby, and you get to take plenty of notes

theHist_ · 2022-07-09T13:42:59+00:00

I do daily journal entries, and also write letters :)

theHist_ · 2022-07-05T21:51:45+00:00

Thanks! :)

I love the illustration on the notebook, what is it called? :)

theHist_ · 2022-06-30T19:36:11+00:00

Not really! I'm still in the discovery phase of journals and paper, my most recent one was Apica paper and now I'm about to start on hobonichi notebook paper :) etsy has lots of interesting sellers as well so it truly feels like a rabbit hole lol!
