    Today we look at both a fountain pen and a mechanical pencil (or, lead holder, as some call it), both by Venvstas. Yes, they are expensive, but they are also unlike anything I've ever used before. Extremely light but still strong, the Designer 8 (the pencil) weighs only 10 grams, while a regular pencil weighs 5. While I have a hard time justifying the extreme price (it would cost almost $400 to get both of shipped and delivered to me in the US), I can't deny that I really enjoy them and am entranced by how they handle.

    I have to make a correction, the pen they sent me is actually their "Carbon T" model, not the "Magna" as I incorrectly stated. This pen, the Carbon T, is priced at 149 Euros, not the 249 that I mentioned in the video. Sorry about that. The Magna has a built-in piston (instead of a piston-converter), which I assume drive up the price. I saw the word "piston" on their website and jumped to the wrong conclusion. Thank you to the few people who corrected me on this!

      Please test the MAGNA as well, it would be awesome to hear your review! Feels that it is very easy to fidget with that piston (which is not protected) and press it making a huge mess everywhere

    What you said about the price is interesting. I have expensive pens but I barely use them. I opened the box, draw or write a thing or two, and switch back to my old one. Is it because I'm afraid to break them? Not sure. It's more a "feel at ease" thing. Somehow a slightly used, damaged pen, is more appealing to me that a brand new one. Same thing goes with paper and books. I need some kind of dirt to feel free to create

      Hi, I agree with you they start to be pricy instruments, but the fountain pen Peter reviewed is the Carbon-T which goes out at 149 Euros. These pens are completely handcrafted in Italy. To keep the price as low as possible we are trying to distribute them by ourselves, but still, we will try to make some more affordable collection working on simplifying the production method. Best

      Not a unique sentiment at all. It's often codified in east asian cultures, where for example in Japan a traditional belief holds that tools and weapons have spirits living inside of them that respond to the care their owner puts into them (and can become vengeful or stubborn if neglected or mistreated), or in China calligraphers and painters would have a personal set of brushes they would get as apprentices and keep for their entire career, with the brushes taking on part of the character of the calligrapher or artist himself. Familiarity can definitely be more important than sheer quality.

      It's quite a common thing (unfortunately) among _many_ people, and with many _things_ (not just art supplies). I heard one person (a TH-camr) explain it as being the "too good to use" sort of mentality that was often taught to us by our parents (or older generations, in general). For eg. the same sort of mentality that the "best" china was never to be used, should instead always be stored on display in the hutch, and only used (if ever) on very, _very_ special occasions. That explanation made absolute sense to me, as that's very much how my family was (and still is). That person had explained that as part of the "argument" in favour of actually _using_ all our supplies, rather than hoarding them for a special day or occasion... and that we need to break ourselves free of that silly, senseless cycle of not using the nice things that we buy for ourselves. And as I'd heard _another_ TH-camr once state: "We bought those supplies to use and _enjoy_ them... not to have them sold, still brand new, for 10 cents on the dollar in an estate sale after we die!" So true... amen to that, I say!!

    Those nasty can collar things shouldn't exist at all. Lots of countries have banned them.

The lead and the mercury from the bulbs helps detox the water! All the fish people eat out of this lake, and also all the 1000s of people who get drinking water from the lake should thank me. But they don’t know the favor I’m doing for them! When my kids swim in the water for a while they always come out with a fiery red rash all over. It’s awesome to see the detox happening right in front of you!

      Hi, they aren't so light, you can feel the weight of the stainless steel or lead free brass components.
      We are architects and we designed this instruments for ourselves because we need to draw and sketch.
      They are light weight, but very well balanced. The fountain pen is 13 gr which is an average weight and it does not feel as light as a plastic pen. We do not seek for unbearableness, we just try to produce the best design we can at the most affordable price. Best

      @@venvstasitaly9452 Ahum, to quote Ringo Starr, you realize I was not thát serious, ...?
      But sir because you are, carbon fiber is a gimmick material for a fountain pen, no way you will convince me that it enhances the functionality of the pen, and it certainly does not help to "balance" it. An object as small as a fountainpen does not significantly improve by the use of such a ridiculous strong and light material. It just drives up the prize making it a lot less affordable ( a term you brought into this) than strictly necessary.
      And don't get me wrong, nothing against fancy materials, for fancy expensive pens (I myself covet a tasty brass pen, for no other reason than, yum, cool looking hefty brass!).
      And carbon fiber certainly is a very cool material, and the pen looks great. As for quality, I take your word for it.
      Would I shell out the, what is it, 149 euros for it?. Nope, because, you know, it is not brass. And that is just a matter of taste. What was what I basically meant by my previous statement that seemed to have ticked you slightly off...

    • @keevansixx4185
      @keevansixx4185 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      interesting....does it involve a solvent that dissolves only the binding polymers without damaging/dissolving the carbon fiber tubules? I think the entire process could be helped/improved upon by pre-treating the carbon fibers with a protective coating that binds to the tubules prior to resin impregnation into it's final cast form. That way, when you apply the unbinding solvent, only the polymers are affected and not the carbon fibers themselves, thus allowing for the salvaging of the fibers to be recast into newer forms.

    • @NPTurtles
      @NPTurtles 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@keevansixx4185 There were a few different approaches to this in my research. One was using a solvent (nitric acid iirc) to dissolve the epoxy without damaging the fibers. Microwave radiation pyrolysis was another promising method to break down the resin and leave the carbon intact. There are also more crude methods of shredding cured CFRPs which could be repurposed for fire resistant insulation or other things that don't require the strength of the aligned fibers but could benefit from the weight and thermal properties.

      @@NPTurtles I'm sure you came across the term "chop toe" in your research, basically like particle wood board but made of carbon flakes instead. Carbon parts can still be quite strong even without precise fiber alignment simply due to the epoxy holding it together. Seems pretty viable to recycle it for such a use since there's no need to care about fiber continuity for chop toe layups. Take a carbon car hood mod for example, basically no loads on it, needs to be light, shred up some crashed bike frames and remold, bam case closed.

    Maybe it was already explained, but when they say linear carbon fiber, they mean all of the fibers are moving in the same linear direction. The majority of carbon fiber material is woven fabric that is layered in alternating angles to provide strength in key directions.
    Also, i work with composite materials, Pre-preg is a very common term and it just means the material has been pre impregnated with resin. For us, it makes working with the material easier because we do not have to mix resins and apply it "wet". We thaw it, cut it to shape and lay it in place before we cure the material. Far less messy.
    Lastly, I love this the styling is so simplistic yet so amazing. It is a shame it is so expensive. I have the means to get one, but I can't justify actually getting one.

      With a pensive gaze? Overwhelmed yet strangely calm? Entrepantly romantic in a stunned yet contented sort of way? Oh wow you're right.... one could most certainly write a novella on how he looks at his pen. And it would be a saga. A saga of love and yet frustrated yearning of potential yet to be fulfilled thus leading to a melancholic angst that is periodically overshadowed by pure evanescent bliss. I'm seeing noir.......

    I love this draw-wing, and I love this pen and this pencil. Now I have a something else to pine and yearn and hanker for. In my family, we call expensive things one pines, yearns and hankers for "Pink Hats With Feathers", which means these writing/draw-wing instruments with the cool V within a V are pink hats with feathers. I will explain the origin of the phrase. My grandmother had her eldest son, my eldest Uncle, look after her finances after grandfather passed on. And she had an allowance, but every now and then she got something just because she wanted it so badly. In this particular case, she bought a pink hat with feathers. Her son did not understand it and complained about her purchase. "You didn't need this!" To which grandmother said, "But sometimes a lady needs a pink hat with feathers." All the men shook their head, not understanding. All the women nodded in perfect understanding. Someday...someday, if not these writing instruments, something perfect like them. Part of pink hats with feathers is the enjoyment of pining, yearning, and hankering for them for awhile.

      Thanks a lot! we love carbon fiber too... imagine we even went to Varano the Melegari where Dallara factory is, we saw some of the most advanced labs for carbon fiber molding... Most of racing cars shells and components are shaped around that area. The fiber we use here is actually linear, as Peter point out. The fibers runs only in one direction. This is mainly an aesthetic choice cause the cross fiber is quite known and very related to racing... We wanted something more elegant an less sporty... Now we might work with a different cross fiber, very new... fingers crossed.
      Btw this fountain pen is called Carbon T and it goes for 149 euros. Best

  • @tacticalcenter8658
    @tacticalcenter8658 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I like carbon fiber alot. But I don't particularly like unidirectional or linear carbon fiber. The advantages in this cf is that it has better strength in the long direction. I like the look of unidirectional cf when it's been sanded into the layers. But like cross hatch style better overall. I prefer pre preg with vacuum bagged and autoclave over wet layup and vacuum bag. Though tbo both have there advantages and different techniques for wet layup from advanced people of the craft can make a really good product. Voids in carbonfiber are sources of failures, and most cf will have some voids, less voids is better.
    In any case I'd like to take a block of carbon plate (several layers that end up looking like a block or plate that is usually pressed in a 10 lbs press) and turn it on a laythe etc and make a pen from that.
    Pre preg is pre impregnated. It comes with epoxy already applied to the sheets of carbonfiber. The rolls are kept in a freezer to keep the epoxy in a state so it doesn't get goopy. This is often better because you have the right amount of epoxy. While wet layup is taking the dry sheets of carbon fiber and applying epoxy on each layer you put down. This often causes uneven layers of epoxy in the layup and can cause issues in different ways. It's the most common method for diy and for certain applications like sailing masts. Because the wet layup has room to bend a bit more with the wind from the sails.

      We can have a trip to motor valley if you could, I just have been at the Haas tech campus near Parma... All around the area we have the most advanced labs for cf molding... most of the F1, India Napolis, FormulaE and many oder racing cars shells are made here... In Varano there is Dallara... One of the greatest genius of our century in this field... If you are into carbon fiber, racing and aerodynamics you need to check this man life! Best

    Prepreging means pre-impregnating with resin (usualy epoxy) the fibers. It is just a shortend version of the word.

  • @ravkesef
    @ravkesef 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    The problem with the turtle collar is that many turtles inadvertently stick their necks into these soft drink throwaways, and then can’t retract their necks. It kills them. Literally. Along with many other small animals for whom our trash spells death. Imagine a squirrel sticking its neck in, and then being unable to escape from a predator. New subject: if you want to review fountain pens, it might be a good idea to become familiar with the nomenclature. The part of the pen you write with is called the nib. (Incidentally, the nib is set into the feed, that plastic thing that delivers the ink to the nib.). Next up is a part called the “grip section,” or “grip,” or “section,” any of these three names work. I mention that because you seemed to have some difficulty with the term. Then there’s the barrel, and you have the three main parts of the pen: nib, section and barrel. Of course, we don’t want to forget about the cap, or your ink will quickly dry up. And your drawing with the pen is simply exquisite.

    Latin didn't have the letter U at the time, they just used V for both. At some point 'u' stood for the smaller variant of the capital V, but later developed into its own letter. The company just used V in their spelling for modern U.

    The "section" is short for the grip section.I've had three Venvstas pens. I bought one on-line. It leaked badly. The company sent me another. It also leaked. I had also signed up for one on kickstarter. It took many months to come and it also leaked. Do you see all the ink on your hand? Where do you think that cam from? Your pen is leaking as mine did, at the break between the section and the barrel. It's too bad because I like the look and feel of the pen but it seems that can't make one that keeps its ink inside.

    • @peter_draws
