Can the Sailor Compass 1911 Satisfy all your Desires? -- Fountain Pen Review and Demonstration
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 ก.ย. 2024
- Today we're taking a look at and using the Sailor Compass 1911 to do a drawing. I was really impressed with this pen. I was expecting it to be "just another fountain pen" but I guess that's the whole problem. So many fountain pens these days look exciting, fancy, and are generally over the top, but they don't actually perform that well which is what really matters. Even though this pen is bright yellow, it still manages to be understated, and performed flawlessly for me as I drew with it.

This video also includes a fanmail section after the drawing, thanks to everyone who sends me stuff! You're all very kind and generous.

That real talk about dating apps was so refreshing. Very honest experience that a lot of us have.
A minute and three seconds of solid GOLD at the start there! Groovy is a side that we the viewrs often dont see
Peter has the dance moves I aspire to have.
When you started talking about the whole dating app situation I just had to think about my girlfriend. Man I love her so much,I realized this once again right now, I love her so much
Liked this in the first 10 seconds
The yellow gemstone that just about matches that exact color is topaz.
You can see the same elongated hexagonal pattern in Star Wars, when C-3PO, in Luke's workshop's oil bath, says "Thank the maker". The walls have that pattern all over.

I vibe so hard with what you were saying about being comfortable alone and that making it hard to accommodate someone else in your lifestyle. Like I'd love to not be alone, but figuring out how to find a stranger and integrate them into my mostly-content, mostly-solitary existence is baffling.
Damn, this is me😞
wow this yes
you put this in words so well thank you
Exactly! It's like being with someone is an external need, a social need, that sometimes doesn't translate well with our way of living
Me and my man, sometimes we just coexist in the same room lol and it's totally okay
"Hello everyone, my name is Peter... still." I love your humour and wit and that intro was *chef's kiss* I love seeing you dance and go with the flow! You're such a delight :)
Sooo Peter just gonna start the video and pretend he didn’t toss out an ABSOLUTE BANGER BEST MUSIC VIDEO OF 2020
Sh*t was fire
“My name is Peter...still.”

Yea, that cracked me up
Just gotta wait till he gets knighted
I dunno why but this commentary kinda made me sad, I hope peter finds someone and talks excitedly about them in the next commentary
Devious Dysentery haha! At least within the next five years...
I can't help being just a little concerned that his girlfriend will like us.

Oh hell yeah that intro.
I relate so much with the dating thing. This is why I come here it's just peter being real and letting us know what's happening and I think we all can appreciate that. He's so open and real so I think it would be great for peter to find that someone.
Ahhh yes another jewel of an intro
I'm just waiting for the Peter Dances channel to come out

Love the intro.
Being a loner gives a great deal of freedom, being in a relationship takes a lot of time/energy/sacrifice.
It's nice to have someone to share some moments with, but it can be nice to just do what you want, without having to clear it with someone else first.
Yeah there’s definitely benefits to each side
@@peter_draws better be
That sounds like being a butler to me, not a relationship.
The dating app commentary is SO real. The whole juggling act of “am I being too picky” “am I being picky enough” “am I judging them too harshly” “they look like they wouldn’t date me” “would I adopt a cat with this person” “could I marry this person (as if I could tell by their profile??)”. So real.
I was NOT ready for that funktabulous intro! But now... I’m gonna have to request MORE, please. More dancing. More rapping. And more animation. Please. (Thank you 🤝)
I feel like you're trolling me with that grid talk. It's a yellow book... and a hexagon grid. Yellow hexagons. It's obviously honeycombs.
Agreed.
Not gonna lie. I thought chicken wire when I first saw it.
I was worried that you were going to confess something bad, like "Everyone, I decided I enjoy eating live mice.", or something like that.
Yummy
nothing wrong with eating a live mouse every now and again. nothing wrong with playing with your food. nothing wrong with getting a little enrichment with your meals.
@@ochrecavern4589 my snake makes those mice look so yummy 😣
For the farmer types among us, those hexagon shapes look like chicken wire. Yep. Oh, nvm... he got to that. I should listen all the way through before commenting.
Keep us updated on the whole "Peter being your name" thing. I'm sure we would like to know if you ever happen to change it.
Thumbs up if you were dancing with peter in the intro 👍
Peter! I met my husband on a dating app. We will have been married for 4 years this December. Don't give up!!
Also I might add. It took awhile for me to find him. I didn't find many others I was interested in for months, even over a year. Theres so many people out there, don't feel bad or discouraged if it takes you awhile to find someone. It definitely takes time. Dont feel bad for being picky, but also give people chances!

Peter: “if you ever have a butler...”
I lost the person of my dreams, because I was intimidated by them. I wish I hadn't. I wish I hadn't walked away. I was young then. However, I must say, now that I'm older, I can say that I wasn't then ready for relationships. Perhaps I would have grown though, or even been the most content. However, I would have known what it was like to take on the intimidation. At 56 years old, I am still intimidated by things that stretch me with others. I can stretch myself when I'm alone, with my talent and abilities in private. It's with others I struggle.
Sometimes we look back and only remember the good. There was a reason you didn’t end up with that person. Please don’t look back, don’t live with regret, the past is gone. Look around you now and enjoy the positive you currently have. I have always loved my alone time. There are others like you out there. Don’t give up. 💖
Oh God. I was so so so broken hearted. Saw hm I’m FB. What a great guy he was and I was paralyzed petrified, shy. He’s had a great life. Oh well…
these intros are getting increasingly sensual. pretty soon I'll have to tell people I watch Peter for the plot
That made me laugh!
Math! A polygon whose sides - consequently angles - are all the same length is called a *regular* polygon!
Ah yes, thank you!

First go adopt a cat, a yellow cat, they are clever... And then after a while go back to your dating app and keep over thinking while drawing... You are great :)
Lovin’ the music, lovin’ the moves, lovin’ the art, lovin’ the groove.
Peter you’re the man.
I think the fact that you carried on drawing and did not mention the pen once speaks volumes about how good it is. It seemed to just behave perfectly and you forgot you were using it - just as you should with any tool. I did worry about Daisy, though; I hope she's doing ok. Right, I'm off to buy that pen. Thanks for the (non) review which was so much more helpful than lots of words about it. Great drawing, btw!
This is a brilliant video. Part this, part that, part the other, all of them compelling.
I'm also very comfortable being alone now. It's going to take a very special person for me to want them in my space 24/7.
Why would you think you would just meet the person you would spend forever with? You have to get out there and look, experience. Trial and error, it's okay if it takes a while. Even then, it takes work to have a successful relationship. Married 28 years....
1:34 An ‘Inkcident’ 🌊🖋
Random fact: This channel has become my all-time favorite random like on TH-cam. I had Peter's sketchbook tour recommended by the algorithm years ago and ever since took the deep dive into your videos, and now whenever I get the update ping I know my evening will be awesome! Keep doing you Peter, you inspired me to embrace my abstract art.
No one is out of your league. You’re handsome, smart, funny, and creative - trust me. If you see a woman you find attractive (visually and intellectually) strike up a conversation.
Yes! I agree with @MichaelSalonga. Also, dating sites are a gamble at best. The key is to strike up conversations in public with females without doing so just because you're attracted to them physically. In fact, you'll be surprised how many lovely women are out there who aren't what society would deem as attractive, but would make a wonderful companion. I promise you'll discover the love of your life if you'll just began your journey by looking for a friend, rather than a girlfriend. 😜
I love my alone time and I think you do too, so say that upfront. I feel like most men are at a loss as to how to approach a woman, but it starts with something simple like asking a question (make one up), being yourself, and not giving up.
I don't know if this is worth writing, but you have thousands of ladies who watch your videos...maybe there's a way to connect with one of them? The truth is, while we all are dealing with this pandemic, a pandemic of loneliness is rampant in this world. I feel it's not new, just extremely magnified during this time. Hang in there...sending you a great big hug of support. 💗🥑🦋
I was literally watching a video of yours as the notification went off
Peter that’s a really interesting problem, I’m in Chicago dating again after ending a fairly long relationship, and dating apps are so weird, even for someone that’s pretty comfortable and confident in most situations.
As a little tip! I’ve always felt the less you can text the better, instead of texting someone all day, try and find an excuse to hangout. If it’s hot outside, complain about the heat, if they agree, invite them to a cool little ice cream shop. Inverse with cold and hot chocolate.
You both like movies? Maybe you can make a lil date watching Wes Anderson films or studio ghibli.
Also if you can handle it, some of the most attractive people I know have found healthy long term relationships with people that aren’t necessarily “Hot”, but are instead sweet, kind, and funny. It doesn’t hurt to be interesting or talented either.
Best of luck! And thanks for all of the calming joy your videos bring.
When it’s safe, go out. Say hello. Meet new friends. Try some new hobbies. You’ll find someone to be with if that is what you want. I knew I found my person when they simply liked me for being me, geekiness and all.
OMG You are not the only one. Well short of hypothesis about how life will be with someone but everything else is going on here as well. Picky is good, saves you lot of trouble. Being alone is enjoyable but sometimes cuddling once in a while would be nice.
Just be your "weird and not that tough" self, and a lady will come along who's looking for just that! That is how my boyfriend and I found each other on the app Happn. If we lived in the US, we would probably be broken up after this video and competing to win your heart haha, because we think you really are a special one
I'm not even kidding I love the intro song and I would pay money to download that.
Peter, just be yourself. No matter what happens, there is always someone waiting ...........for you.
Dating apps suck. It’s takes dating by looks and assumptions to a science level, which is terrifying for those of us who already over analyze :P. Picky, especially in dating apps, is a sign of health, I think. Being happy with being alone means you are less likely to settle for someone who doesn’t make your life better. Go team!
This man can do it all. Truly a legend.
Good luck finding a lady friend! Online dating could be very fun, but also I'm sure it does come with it's own set of anxieties. I bet they ghosted because they got nervous. Maybe they weren't as ready for a relationship as they thought they were. But no worries. Your special someone is out there for sure.
Or gentleman friend..?
please include smells into every review!
Also dating is so hard. those apps are not made to work for everyone. Find what works for you.
I understand being lonely and this year has been a especially lonely one.
Good luck Peter!
Omg, I relate to the dating portion so much. You connect with someone, you have great conversation, you relate on so many ways, you think everything is going well, etc. Then once you ask to meet up, have coffee or chill at a park, they just ghost you. I'm an introvert and it takes a lot of mental and emotional push for me to finally ask someone to go on a date. So when they just ghost you, for reasons you don't know besides, you think that they really didn't like me to begin with, it hurts lol. I guess I'll just try again 🤷🏻♂️
It's been similar for me. Everyone's different, so it's impossible to tell what would be best - When to ask to move beyond chatting online, how long to wait, not knowing if there will be a better moment in the future or if maybe this is the best you'll ever get along with while staying online, if expressing the want for more will lead to you getting closer, or destroy something before it could grow naturally. Every social interaction is a bit like a "black box", or maybe Schrödinger's cat cage - you'll only know what's inside when you open it, and once you've done so, you can't move back.
At least that's what made it stressful for me.
Hi Peter!
Dating apps are super awkward for lots of people, it’s not just you. As a fellow introvert who is very comfortable alone I can relate, I have no idea what to say to people on there plus I’m on the autism spectrum and communicating without body language and voice inflection is confusing. You’re never really sure what a person is looking for at first so I recommend being as straight forward and honest as possible. I’ve also found people to seem interested until I wanted to meet in person, I really don’t get that. I think it is intimidating to other people to be so comfortable and often alone, that’s a thing I have a hard time relating to other people about-- I like home, that’s where all my fun stuff is and my pets are there, if I have food I just don’t leave that much. Covid lockdown is pretty much already my way of life, lol.
My dude, you’re handsome and interesting and funny, you have big beautiful eyes and a kind, expressive face with the sort of smile that makes others smile immediately. You’re smart and thoughtful and extremely talented, you’re not out of anyone’s league by any means, don’t sell yourself short. I can’t lie, being an introvert does make it harder but there’s absolutely nothing wrong with it. Introverts are resilient and Imaginative.
Good luck, my friend. Also remember you’re not a lesser person for not being in a relationship.
Oof i felt this. I rather vibe with someone on a couch or on a carpeted floor with a video, music, audio book or pod cast on while reading or writing or drawing. It’s just that comforting thing that’s hard to explain but like, you know that this person is also content and doing their own thing and you just enjoy their presence. It’d be nice to just hold this person close to you too. Hear their heart beat. Just being in the moment with that person. Dating is fine but it’s more... meh. Especially being around really loud, crowded places. Hard to enjoy eachother’s company when being drowned out by 100’s of passers by
I feel exactly how you feel Peter, your not alone.
Peter, you are such a beautiful and unique human being. You are so special that you need a very special human being to be your partner. You are going to find someone who values all of your amazing and endearing traits and it’s going to be a day so amazing. You are so worthy of true love and I can’t wait for that to happen for you!!! Good vibes and love headed your way my friend!!
I loved that intro song so much!! Also I really enjoyed hearing about your experience with dating apps too
Peter, I just checked out your website. I haven't been on it for quite some time; I must say it is awesome. I will be ordering my first Peter print.
Ink monster peter is the best thing I've seen all day.
i wanna say good on you for getting that dating stuff off your chest. that stuff can eat you up inside. not had much luck with dating apps my self but i would say don't expect too much but just enjoy meeting people. too keep it on theme with the content. its like drawing art. its not gonna take off straight away and you just gotta feel it out, you'll figure it out as you go.
I'm gonna need one of you ladies to cuff my man here
Get a Cat, a Dog or Both for companionship. Always loyal and want to be around you.
I'm gonna take a guess here and say maybe the reason people ghosted you after you asked them out for coffee or whatever is that maybe they wanted to get to know you first and make sure you were legit and not like a serial killer or something. I know girls tend to be hyper aware of that sort of thing. Then again, idk how long you spent talking to them first, also I've never tried a dating app. Just a thought. Love the drawing
Talk about unrequited admiration..3 years Daisy had to wait. Poor girl..
I hope she still watches
MF is a line width that Pilot, Platinum and Sailor all offer in Asia although not for every pen model. Sailor (and Platinum) converters can easily be taken apart for cleaning and applying some silicone grease.
The intro was a cool MV. I like watching the process of the drawings come to be.

could anyone else stop thinking of what we all know as MF

Hey man love ur content keep it up love the song as well mega bars
Peter, your life only gets better if you are willing to let it get worse on the way.
That's some cool deep wisdom you are speaking. 🤘
Doggo isn't feeling well today which means im not feeling well, needed a video to get my minds of things. Perfect timing Peter, thanks!!
I hope your dog feels better!
@@peter_draws Peter you really are the next Bob Ross
I don't think anyone who attempts to curb their lonely feelings goes onto a Dating App and knows what they are going to get out of a simple date with someone. The point of dating apps, for myself at least, is to vet people of similar interests of your own and then take it to the "meeting" level. After that you can decide to see each other again and its a lot more casual and off the cuff. Keep at it, even if you dont want a companion - its nice to put yourself into the pool and see if you do find someone :) Good luck, Peter!
Ha ha "I'm Peter. Still."
"What stone is yellow?"
That pen is made of uranium 😆 We knew you well Peter. Most commonly know for his smooth dancing.
As the drawing came together I could only come up with one acceptable title for it... "rate my setup"
I meet my husband on eharmony, it took me two years on the site to find him. We have been together for 10 years, but I had to have a lot of hum nice person but not the one. Dating is weird, good luck and click on the people you are intimidated by, don’t overthink it. You both are just people wanting to meet new people.
I wonder what was drawn behind the "yoghurt and fruit".. Peter you silly dumdum, you forgot to show us.
oops
I just wanted to comment something nothing to see here.
My god, I could not relate with you more with your dating situation. I literally feel the same way, not sure what to really do and how to feel
Dating apps only worked for me once I had been on them long enough to treat them kind of business like. It takes some practice to be able to send a message that illustrates that you've read the profile and have genuine interest, but aren't in fantasy land imagining a fairy tale future. Its like sales, for better or worse, get used to hearing No.
I think i was on OK Cupid for...4 years off and on before I met my partner (we're at 2.5 years, 5x my previous longest relationship)
Keep it up, be patient, loosen expectations, and just be you
Not really sure about the pen. That seemed to have a lot of fuzzy and bleed. Could be the pen, the ink, or the paper. A bit more experimentation would e appreciated. If I was writing with that, bleed at that level would eventually torque my chain a fair amount...
Funky video. First time watcher. I will be back for more.
I’m no expert peter , But I wanna help you like you helped me, here are a couple things I’ve learned from dating apps. Watch out this is a long comment. You may not even read this but other people going through the comments might enjoy it.
Dating apps are pretty whack, I don’t know what it’s like for attractive people, but I’ve found that 9/10 ladies don’t swipe right or heart you or whatever. And the ones that do 9/10 of those have the worst conversation skills ever it would be more fun talking to a brick wall. So it’s probably not you that is failing the talking and getting to know each other and meet up.
Secondly you can’t be thinking about spending the rest of your life with them straight up. That’s like going to pick a car or a house that you’ll have for the rest of your life! Yeah your going to be picky as hell and you may not even get It once you choose. You’ll find that if you think about the present time instead of the future, making choices seems a lot easier. And you may get end up living in that house or driving that car that you love, or you won’t. For relationships it’s the same idea, If it’s a one time thing, that’s fine. if it’s a casual thing on the DL, that’s fine. If it lasted a lifetime that’s fine too.
When you asked what those squiggles were I thought they looked like round butts 😂 my mind needs to be cleaned and left out of the gutter. By the way I love❤ your videos your voice is like a jazz🎶 player using a butter saxophone as their instrument🎷 keep up the great work😊👍
Weirdly enough I was kind of curious if you were single... and then BAM. I find the honest chit chat very refreshing and makes the audience feel even more connected. Love watching your videos.
If I were you I would date a subscriber to your channel. They already admire and enjoy your company and have an interest in drawing. You could have a pair of matching drawing tables and clink your coffee cups together.
I like listening to you muse about pens almost as much as watching you draw! I’m no expert on pens or drawing but find your thoughts and attitude encouraging.
Damn peter I realy like you! You are so genuine! Hope you are doing good! Yeah I get your vibes around dating apps, I think the best thing to do is date in real life as fast as possible. But that seems not the norm on those apps so I don't know how long you should wait.
It's OK to be picky about who you choose to hang out with. I wasn't picky enough when I was 18 and ended up married to a big, childish pain in the tush.
PETER I AM HERE
Welcome
I think there is great generosity in you talking openly and honestly about your life and experiences. I can guarantee you that nobody in any relationship, at any stage of their relationship can see 40 years into the future! :D My natural setting is over-think too, or rumination as psychologists call it. But I have learned some self discipline to just stop when it's not serving me or getting me anywhere.
I loved your intro! So "That's what I do."
I personally hate dating apps, I would rather meet someone in real life and have a chance to get to know them on a more personal level. I've met some doosies that I've taken the time to meet in person, and ALL of them were a NO GO for me. I seem to be one of those people who would rather be alone than with the wrong person though, just my personal preference. I have friends of course, but so far, none of them are my "the one" so to speak. "Would this person be willing to let me sleep in if I wanted to? If I wanted to cook something, would they like to try it as well? Would they be allergic to my pets? Would I be allergic to them? (I have bad allergies and need what I call 'unscented friends'.) Of course a whole lot of other things come into play as well. I think, when we're ready, we will find who we want to be with, but until then, I enjoy my "freedom" even though I am lonely.
Thank you for opening some mail in this video, you get some really wonderful and creative people sending you mail! Much love and well wishes to all of you out there in the world 🥰 Stay safe and stay creative!
I could never accommodate other person in my lifestyle it's just too much work I'd rather be alone and have the freedom to do whatever or nothing at all
I watched this about a minute after you posted it but I was half asleep and cosy so didn't comment then. Super video, and heart touching - I remember those dating (or more accurately, feeling obliged to find people to date) days with both joy and horror, and the feeling I would always be lonely and I would never find someone to love or to love me. I enjoy being alone, but I have now been married for some time to a really wonderful person and have my own little family (my 14 year old has loved your videos since she was about 8, and it was her that got me into watching you). They dovetail into my own introversion beautifully as they are happier in their own company, too. I know it's a cliche, but the important things in life always happen at the right time.
Try not to overthink it, see it as just getting to know people, and let it flow to wherever it goes. Sometimes when we overthink, and play out all the scenarios in our heads, it becomes much bigger than it is.
You might think someone is out of your league but you never know, they could like you just as much, so send that little heart!
Also, regarding what you said about someone who was interested, suddenly ghosting after you’ve asked them out, it might have been a little too soon for them. Sometimes people like to speak a little longer, to get to know someone better before meeting up in real life.
Thank you for being so raw and authentic. I love listening to you speak and watching your drawings. You’re so talented, and also super funny and seem like a really cool person. Sending you lots of love and wishes of peace and happiness.
🌻✨
I love your work and your rambling. Thanks for sharing.
Hello Peter D., I was wondering if you could make another real time vid. I do enjoy those so much more. Yes, I thoroughly enjoy listening to your voice as you draw, but I know that I would enjoy it that much more if it were to be a real time drawing. I enjoy the calmness nature of your doodle art. I have tried to draw as you do, but that blessing is no longer one that have and can enjoy having gone through my passed events, so now I enjoy coloring which is the calm that I can enjoy with no judgements. Remember, Real Time Drawing please :)
26:31 the Morse code would say: I/ z/n/ m/u/a/i/m/d/q/ (?) Doesn't seem to make sense to me 🤣

Life’s become so online that it’s hard to separate it from real life. That’s probably why they ghosted you after you turned the online conversation into a possible real life met up. Keep trying and never stop ✍️ drawing stuffs amazing
I hope you find someone peter, you deserve someone to sit and watch movies with, someone who will enthuse about your intrests together. Keep positive, love takes time :)
