    Loved your Haul! What a fun video! That same Rickshaw Sinclair Pen Case jumped out at me, too. The colour is nice!
    This is the only Burl Wood Modular Ink Vial and Pen Holder I've made! It's all yours! So glad you love it! Enjoy! It was an absolute pleasure to meet you in person and have a lovely chat 😊

    Thanks for sharing your haul (and your enthusiasm 😀-- I did not expect you to get a fountain pen from Jonathon that was matte *and* polished---great idea!) Thank you also for volunteering at the show---we spoke briefly and I commented on how warm it was in the hotel's walkway (where you were seated while directing showgoers). Y'all did a great job and I hope to return for another pen show in the Portland area!😁

      Hey 👋🏽. Nice to "meet" you again 😉 I could not make up my mind between the gloss and matte pen and it just came to me to ask for bit of both. Totally loving it the final product!
      I'll be there at the show next year too.

    That's an excellent haul! And it was lovely to meet you at the Pen Show! I think the book is my favorite-those dragonflies!-but the pen would have been my favorite if I hadn't chosen my own Carolina Pen Co pen and realized each one has its own person! I went for a red/orange/brown swirl in the matte finish. Cool point: the Carolina Pen Co pens use Jowo nibs so you can try your Titanium Flex in that.

    • @wildlyimaginable
      @wildlyimaginable  6 місяців тому

      Hey there Anna! Thanks! Wonderful meeting with you too! Haven't forgotten about that ink bracket you showed me. Thinking maybe doing one for October. Mmmmh... Might have to hit you up to ask questions if I have any.
      You're so right about those Carolina Pen Co pens having their own personality that matches with its eventual owne. The one you describe that you got sounds awesome!👌🏽 As for my new Titanium Flex nib, I still have yet to pull out some of my pens that hold Jowo nibs to try it in. I did remember to put it on my Braindump list to do tho.
