Congratulations on 100 subscribers.

Hongdian ink is nice ink. I use it all the time

Can't get a dip pen into a Ferris Wheel Press bottle?-- No surprise there--a poorly designed ink bottle--perhaps the poorest ever! Cher, and speaking of knocking over a bottle--again, so poorly designed that Ferris Wheel Press will kindly sell you a "carriage" to put the bottle in while you use it-- Gotta laugh at their hutzpah!

I like my Jinhaos. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you for this video. Glad to have found your channel. Subscribed ! For me shimmer inks have created more headaches with fountain pens than I care to deal with, shimmer inks are now dip pens only for me. Merry Christmas!

It's so typical cat-style what Christmas does, I love it 🙂

Hi! Your video popped up on my feed today. I love seeing ink swatching. I have Private Reserve Black Cherry and the bottle dripped for me, too. I have a paper taped to the lid warning me to be careful. Lol. No clue why it does that.

Your fish tanks water level sounds a little low

Lovely video! Thank you for sharing, and happy holidays to you!

I love that you embrace the mess! Kinda necessary in this hobby. I have a ton of purples and not many greens. We should swap samples! :-)

I’ve always wanted to refill a Varsity. I love them and would love to put some different inks in them. I haven’t been able to get the nib unit off. I’ll keep trying!

We are the same age and got into pens at the same time! I recently got into twsbi and oh my god I love them

Peter Moss is one of my favorite greens as well - nice choices! I may need to try Amamoyoi...

Great selection! Diamine Cozy Up is going on my wish list, along with Dominant Industry Arizona Sky Crimson. I hadn’t seen the Arizona Sky Crimson swatched before - you have a stunner there.

Diamine Sargasso Sea blue, Sapphire Blue, iroshizuku Take-Sumi, Sailor Oregon for Christmas cards Diamine Golden Sands 😊

I complete agree with you here. For me, there is something just so calming and slow and therapeutic about cleaning out, inking and writing with my pens. I kinda don't care what I'm writing about, I just want to lay some ink on the paper. And it's that act, even if taken in very small doses, that helps me focus and relax. It's weird. Even while I'm working, I started logging my work in a notebook with a fountain pen, something I NEVER did before, and that helps me slow down and focus. It's very nice.

I really love this. I only recently got into fountain pens and inks a few months ago and I'm just diving right off the deep end, and I can't stop buying new pens and inks haha! But as I've worked in IT for so many years (decades), all of my writing was on a keyboard and my longhand just got almost to the point of illegibility. So I do exactly what you're doing here. I just get a nice blank paper and I start to transcribe poems or passages from books or quotes or lyrics to my favorite songs, just to practice and to have an excuse to use a pen and ink. I'm so glad to have found your channel because what you do here is a bit unlike what you find on other pen channels. I'm going through your backlog of videos. I like them. Glad to subscribe. I really hope you keep it up and hopefully if enough people find it, maybe the logarithm will give you boost. Your Top 5 Inks video was suggested on my feed because I have been watching so many Inkvent type videos. Hopefully you will get suggested to more people. Show off your inks and pens. :) BTW, great poem to transcribe. Poe for the win

Look into Opus 88, as someone else suggested. I’ve been very happy with their Mini model which holds much more ink than the Kaweco for a small pen. Good for a university student. Also TWSBI Mini, my first fountain pen since I was in college decades ago-a piston filler.

I think it figures that a pen nerd would be a good student!

Ink drops on your paper, ink all over your hands. Yes! I love that. That's kinda me on a daily basis, I always get ink all over my hands and fingers. It's kind of the fun of it. I'm glad you kept your paper and just rolled with it. Now I get the name of your channel. "Pen Nerd" and "Ink Nerd", totally fits :)

You have to be careful with the PR lids. Just make sure you wipe the threads on the lid before capping the bottle.

I bought a $10 Jinhao 82 with a M nib on Amazon and it handles shimmer inks really well. My favorite this year was Dominant Industry Pearl Series Harbor of Dieppe and my Kaweco couldn’t handle it…but that $10 pen could. I am going to go look for that Arizona one now. It is so beautiful! Andddd I’m gonna try to figure out what my other top inks were too!

First video of yours that appeared in my feed❤. Thanks for sharing. Love the idea of refilling the Pilot Varsity 🤯 Do you have a video refilling it?

very ethereal hand & movements, tho :)

Just an FYI, Peter Moss is becoming harder to find and I think is being discontinued, so you might now want to continue to try to use it up. Ferris wheel press often does this with their inks. I would choose a different brand if you want to use up an ink you can replace.

Great inks! I think I'll need to try Peter Moss, because it looks beautiful! My favourite ink this year has to be Herbin Midnight Blue - it's such a beautiful colour that I use almost all the time

Oh yay i was hoping you would to a fave inks video!! I love how much ink there is for us out there, I've never tried any of your favourites but they all look gorgeous

Surely you've done hand lettering with brush pens before! This is absolutely stunning! I'm no artist, and paintbrushes intimidate me, but I might just play around with it to see how it goes.

I had to get that purple sparkly hello kitty kaweco and it is so cool. Love it! hope you can get one too.

Ahhh I just got a Jinhao 9019! I got it in the jade yellow with the heartbeat nib, but just rinsed it out so waiting to ink it up. The amber one looks so good too! Was really surprised to see the nib was tested at this price point :P Happy writing.

I love my Jinhao 9019s! I have tiny hands and thought at first that I might not care for them, but they're some of my favorites now because of how well they write and how easy it is to write with them (not what I expected). The heartbeat nibs are perfection, in my opinion. Mine seem to write extra-wet (which I love), compared to their regular Jinhao 9019 nib counterparts, but I haven't done a scientific study of them, lol.

Kaweco Summer Purple is high on my wishlist. I fell in love after trying a sample. These pens are fantastic with shimmery inks. I have had zero clogging issues with the ones I've used in them. They've all been Diamine shimmers so far. The nibs aren't consistent from pen to pen. This is true in most brands really. I love when a pen puts down a lot of ink. Have a great day.

I take my converter out of the pen and put it into the ink bottle to fill it directly when it doesn't fit.

I love the Jinhao 9019 so much that I have it in every color except black. I'll probably get that one eventually. I put Diamine Bashful Blueberry in my 9019 like yours. The other pen would look great with Diamine Three Kings or Robert Oster Honey Bee.

Fun stuff! Love the Starry Night cover! ❤

Love this! 😊

👍🌸🌸🌸

Merci beaucoup 🌸🌸🌸

I love your current journal line up! My current line up is my regular brain dump/feelings journal, reading journal, and I'm going to start a gaming journal soon!

That Noodeler's is nice! I don't love blues but that one is so chill I love it! Also Cozy up is cute, especially in that pen, awesome match! Love your PenBBS pens, recently ordered a couple for myself but I couldn't find the little cutie pen you have so I think I went with a cartige coverter one they had? Can't remember lol. Know what you mean about holiday season but love that you stay positive by connecting with hobbies!

ouu I'm so excited to see what you ink up! Will be back after work haha

what is the pink and purple one that you did the nib adjustment on called?

Very calm and relaxing video, thanks for sharing your pens!

Love summer purple! Also what a fun video, thanks for sharing ❤ I too am trying to resist that hello kitty kaweco in purple sparkle but i just got a gift card from work and i donno.. I can feel myself getting it lol😅

I too adore Kaweco Sports, and that Olivine is gorgeous! It was announced right after I had bought my first AL Sporrt, the Iguana Blue one. So I won't be getting it anytime soon.

New subbie her kiddo! Thanks for sharing

Hey, great video! What makes a good journal or notebook in your opinion? Personally, if it doesn't have a pen loop or somewhere to store writing materials I just won't use it because I'll never have a pen when I want to write in it lol

Love some Poe. Nice video. I do like that paperweight.

Nice😊

No love I dont have any pens from PenBBS. Enjoyed watching you play around with the bigger of the two pens. Thanks for sharing.
