  1. Finally purchased an ultrasonic cleaner for ink pen nibs. I have accumulated a vast collection of technical pens and a smaller collection of fountain pens in the course of my lifetime, most of them sitting in boxes disassembled and clogged. If I can get a small percentage of them clean and functional I will consider it a successful day. I use Noodlers in fountain pens and India ink in the technical pens.

    So far have cleaned an Aristo #technicalpen and a Lamy #fountainpen

  2. As promised, the not-a-#FountainPen but fountain pen adjacent #Rotring Tintenkuli, a #vintage piston filler #TechnicalPen. I acquired this by “accident” in a lot of 10 piston filler pens in various states of disrepair. Luckily this one was only clogged and there was nothing mechanically wrong with it.

    Definitely one of the more unique items in my collection. It was my first Rotring, and I got a second one weeks later, the ArtPen (:

    It writes well with about an M line.

  3. Not a #FountainPen but definitely fountain-pen-adjacent: Rotring Tintenkuli, a #vintage piston filler #TechnicalPen / stylograph that came in a lot of as-is or broken pens. But thankfully it wasn’t broken, just needed a nice clean (:
