I don't know entirely what Uniball did with the Zento ink / refills, but they are night and day better than the Uniball ONE refills.
It really surprised me.

Thought I'd give one of those little Jinhao 20 fountain pen clones of the Pilot Vanishing Point/Decimo a go. Ok ergonomics, but a little skippy and seemed to be trying to push me into writing at a certain angle.

So I shimmed it, 12k micromeshed it, then when that wasn't enough got some 7k grit sandpaper to round/reshape the nib tip and it seems to flow better and fit my writing angle nicer. Maybe more tuning later.

People using BICs never have to do this stuff.

I went to a local office supply store to try out some pens. The clerk helped me pick out some pens based on my criteria that lined up closely with pens I had in mind from what I'd seen online. I ended up getting a set of two Uniball 207+ pens for $7.50. I was also considering getting a Pentel EnerGel since I did have good experience with the .3 mm and they had a version for .5 mm that felt more similar to a ballpoint experience. The price was about the same but I wouldn't need to buy two. In the end, I decided I wanted to experiment more with the Uniball. I also got a super entry-level fountain pen, the Platinum Preppy for $7. It's better suited for writing in cursive and requires me to be more intentional than I am at times speed writing. I like how smooth the writing is, the Uniball was already quite smooth, and while it may be more watery than the Uniball, it bleeds through less. I am excited to run with these for a bit : )

These are from Crochetnonbinary on Etsy. They are technically brush holders but if the pen fits it sits.

I know a lot of people like to pair their pen and pencil sets by make, but tell me these don’t look good together.

After trying a bunch of expensive "fountain pen notebooks", and the mid-price Black N Red notebook, I'm going back to the Staples Tru Red Medium Size Narrow Ruled notebook.

The paper is thick and absorbent, I get some page bleed with my medium nib pen, but no smearing (unlike those "fountain pen notebooks"), good rule size, enough page size to let me express myself without cramping over the page, a wire spine so I can flip the thing back and forth, and perforated pages that let me remove a page when I need to.

And it's <$20 CAD, so ~$16 USD.

It's a genuine pleasure to use.

Dear #stationary #bookbinding nerds, would one of you amazing people please tell me: what is this type of binding (where you only have a band in the middle) called?

This is a refillable planner made by Traveler's Company in Japan, and I highly prefer this vs. metal binder rings. Thank you for your expertise in advance! 📚 https://www.travelers-company.com

Just an idea, also from an #autoethnographic perspective, what about creating a #writing #retreat where you only take a #macintosh (we are talking about Plus/SE/Classic here), some #floppy disks, the #books you need, some #stationary. And a dumb #phone to be reachable. Make it four days. Result?

“No Buy September” was a bust, so there’s plenty to cover in a video 😜

Early October New Pens, Inks, and Stationary!
