ooh very nice… i better not look into it or i will be buying more pens… haha.
my biggest issue is finding paper that is not super expensive and can hold the ink well… bristol board is my favorite but loose sheets are annoying. i’ve found platinum’s carbon black to be the absolute best ink, after trying out many goulet and noodler’s blacks…
i’ll have to check it out — back about five years ago r/fountain pens was a great community!
build one! it’s a blast!
excellent! did you build the guitar yourself? either way, would love to know the woods!
i have thought about doing that before! how did the thickness work out?
oh, absolutely!
i spent way too much buying my grail pen a couple years back (pilot namiki falcon with 14k soft flex nib) and it is an absolute dream… though i do still love my pilot metropolitan and cheap jinhaos!
thank you for all you’re doing on this. godspeed
rockets, sign this frog
the wise words of heraclitus!
if you’re interested in the post title or philosophy in general, i highly recommend the philosophize this podcast. host stephen west takes you through the entire history of philosophy, with high quality episodes and almost no fluff/filler. excellent podcast!
might be some other more important things he needs to convince Ja of first…
saw somewhere (maybe reddit thread before apollo died) that doris burke was on the shortlist to replace jvg? if so... god help us
nice. i bet the body weighs a good bit unless there’s some relief in there!
always a fan of zero inlay necks, they look so clean. the white on maple really works for me
