Thanks you guys! You all rock! I'm glad you're happy with your respective pens!

I've had this happen to a Preppy I used with BSB. I basically soaked it overnight in a 10% bleach to 90% water solution. The next morning I rinsed it off and the blue tint was gone. I know the...

Hello,

I'm cleaning out one of my pen cases and decided to get rid of some pens that I don't use on a regular basis. There are 12 pens here (sorry for the long post!) Each pen has a link to a...

Mine would be Waterman Havana Brown.

Looks good! These may give my webbies a run for their money.

"The force is strong with this one..." sorry couldn't resist. Very nice pen wrap there!

I agree, way more positive trades/buy/sells then negative. I'm glad that this thread was started to reinforce that. Sometimes it's hard to remember all the positive experiences in the wake of...

Kaweco Sport Classic, worked well but ink did stain between the nib collar and clear section plastic over time.
Platinum Preppy for my BSB pen, still works well but I'm always a little leary of the...

Looks good in the second set of pictures. Hopefully that'll be all you needed!

Are you able to push the feed gently further into the section? I have an old Swan eyedropper with a generic nib in it that needed to have the feed pushed in further for it to make contact with the...

When I received the nib I didn't notice any of the darker spots on it. Keep in mind that some of the plating loss is from the original grind and my repair attempt as mentioned in my review. Once...

Yeah I searched around for a bit but couldn't find an option to delete single ones either. Glad it wasn't just me though!

Thank you! Yes, it is really a great review, and I appreciate the excellent write up Mike did for his Lamy retip!

Greg, you're...

You're welcome!

First a little background on my Lamy 2000 and why I needed a re-tip. When I first bought the pen, the fine nib was pretty scratchy. I sent the nib to someone (not Greg) and had it ground down to a...

That is so cool! Thanks for sharing! I always wanted to see one of these blast off. They are sure amazing craft!

Yes, I am truly Jealous of that fact! We have a local chain called Kaldi's that roasts in St Louis and is pretty good. If you get the whole bean coffee directly from the coffee house it's generally...

Those aeropress' make such a good cup of coffee! I think I'll have to break mine out when I get home. This work coffee just isn't cutting it today.

This is really neat. Thanks!

Here's a shot of my Estie Desk set at work. Not very actiony since it is in it's holder but still...

I have a touchdown that has been restored for about 2 years now and is still going strong. When I received it, it wouldn't pull a vacuum. It would blow bubbles but not very many. When I restored...

I have no idea why this is but I love the Kaweco Sport Classic in clear, especially when it is in eyedropper mode. It looks well used as the barrel is all scratched up from the cap when posting but...

I've got a sliver zig-zag that comes up in the rotation often. It actually took the place of a pilot Prera for me. I just can't believe what I great value these little guys are.

I think that is right on. I remember seeing somewhere that most manufactures no longer have tooling or formulas to produce the old flex nibs. The startup costs in getting them back into production...

yeah who knows. good luck with that.[/QUOTE]

I would say the victim - or victims, there appear to be more than one - is the person who sent a pen to kirkylarky and received nothing in return.
