The B leads arrived today. I did a quick lead comparison with the HB ones that came with the pencil.

Ducky X Varmilo Miya Pro Moonlight Is this really a "Pro" model? Time to upgrade to a better keyboard. After countless hours on Youtube, I have finally decided that the Miya Pro is the one for me. The main selling point for me is that it has dedicated arrow keys and the layout uses a standard bottom row, making the keycap replacement much easier. Unboxing The packaging has a premium feel. This entire thing is heavy. The outer box may be familiar to you as I've seen this countless of times in YouTube videos. Getting rid of the brown box, we get to the real box. Very solid box. It'd nice to get but who cares about boxes. The shop where I got it from told me to keep all packaging and contents as it will be required to present it when claiming for warranty. I don't understand why but it is their policy so I have to follow. Not evident on the photo, but there is a silver-y "PRO" witten after MIYA on the box. Opening the box, you'll see the faint colors o...

Sailor Lecoule Iron Blue

February 13, 2021

New Pen Day! Sailor Lecoule New Sailor Fountain Pen pick up today. I've been obsessing over the Shikiori for a few days now but I just can't get over the color choices available. I do see myself getting the more refined Sailor counterparts, but that will be for another day. But until then, I was looking for an understated pen design that I can bring anywhere, yet inexpensive enough to get over with should I lose it. I came across a display of the Lecoule at our local Pen Store and decided to get this for my first Sailor. This will be a stepping stone into my preparation for the more expensive Sailors. They will not be Pen Case queens. Sailor Lecoule in unopened box This is the Sailor Lecoule in Iron Blue. The blue is a deep Navy Blue that I almost mistook for black under adequate lighting. There are no gold accents, which makes it a bit sporty. Rear side of the Sailor Lecoule Packaging The back side of the box contains no word of English except for the "Made in Japan...

Zebra G Nib in Jinhao X750

May 06, 2021

Everything went south after using the Vinta Dugong Bughaw (Blue Blood) ink in this Zebra G Nib Titanium and Jinhao X750 mod. This pen had seen heavy use and probably over a dozen ink refills over the few weeks (less than a month) that I've owned it. It was a fun flex pen but there is nothing to be sad at for this whole setup is dirt cheap. If you're planning to use sheening inks on this Jinhao X750 Zebra G Nib setup, make sure you have enough research about the inks you want to use. The Vinta Dugong Bughaw, while gorgeous on paper, is one nasty thick ink. It would be perfect for feeds with wide channels. Side note: you can score this feed to create deeper channels. The part of the feed where the ink channels are shallow, is where most of the ink dried up. The photos you above are the Nib and Feed after being soaked for 5 days on warm water with mild soap. I keep the water warm by replacing it few times a day.
