also a safari and an al-star

me2

just a safari

i want to try a pilot metropolitan

i mgiht get one..

got two of them

p.nice

oh? you got the pilots?

how do they compare to the lamy

pls share

@AlbumONLY just outside of london

I'll ink up one of them

they used to have a maintenance grant, which is basically like what you described

but the tories cucked us out of that and got rid of it

so now your living expenses come out of the loan?

pretty much

thats a humongous fuckin downgrade

its gonna be a huge debt

tuition fees are only gonna go up as well

dam dawg

thats too bad

you should go easy on the spending then

@Stickmakerman Wouldn't it be much better to get a $0.98 Jinhao 599A and then spend $20 on good ink?

don't worry, already shot it down

i have a 599a as well

its not as good as the lamy but its decent enough

but the x450 blows it out of the water

Not as aesthetic tho :^)

x450 is aesthetic mayne

Speaking of meme pens, which pen would make the most sense to buy and then replace the 'shell' off with a wood one I'd make?

you mean the cap?

or the exterior?

No the body itself and possibly the main part of the cap as well

not sure what you mean

ohhh

i gotcha

hmmmmm

cant go wrong with the thicc jinhaos

they have quality metal threads

so you can keep those bits

I bought some pen blanks to make small knives but never got around to it and will likely have access to a lathe in not that long
