    Had NO idea you can just put ink into the body of the pen like that! Thanks!

      Did you try it? Does it work safely without silicon grease?

    I found out in eyedroppers ,if you put a bottom less cartridge in the feed, the pen burp a lot less.
    It is because it will restrict the ink flow.

    Converter. Even tho it is small i like putting different inks and experimenting with it

      Exactly, people see it as a con but when you have more inks than you know what to do with it's a good bump to try different things

      Same, unless it's a demonstrator. Just a bit more risk with eyedropper and if you can't see it sloshing around, why bother.

      they dont leak but use an o ring or teflon tape (like i did) to ensure it doesnt leak. also with the clear ones ink can seep into the small cracks between the nib unit and the body making it unsightly so just make sure to give them a thorough 24-48 hour soak in water once the ink is empty.

    My Preppys are all eyedropper and they're always burping, despite the silicone grease I carefully apply and reapply. I prefer converters or cartridges, but the latter is so much easier to clean out. So I fill cartridges for my Kaweco Sport and Perkeo. They're right now my fave writers ❤

    Converter or cartridge. I prefer a converter, as it can be disassembled easier and cleaned easier as well. Also, I never dip my pens, but rather the converter directly. Less smudges, easier to clean.

    Oh noooo. I would definitely use an o-ring and silicone grease if dropper filling or else leakage is a real danger.

  • @saidan5236
    @saidan5236 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I tried eyedropping it, the ink slowly seeps through the gap between the grip section and the nib collar. It then comes out from the nib end and makes it inky one tiny drop at a time. The seepage is very slow.
    I also felt that when eyedropping the nib wrote wetter than normal.

    I mainly use a converter and carry a 30 mil bottle of ink. I’ve never eyedroppered a metal/plastic version yet and probably never will.

      If the Sport is metal, don't attempt to drop ink directly into the barrel. It might cause corrosion in the barrel threads, effectively fusing the pen together so you can't open it again.

    These were judged to be inferior and tacky for a luxury item, the pump style is the true path, no wonder homo sapian mogged everyone in design, was genius to use the perfect number whatever it’s called sequence to design it, this sequence is good for items but less so for faces is why we have learned.
