    "Hello everybody. My mame is Peter and I have a box."
    It just feels so happy and determined.
    Like he really own the box. With no worries in the world. Just.. Box.
    His box.
    Singular.
    THE box.
    It just feels so right.
    Like its all that matters.
    Mmh, BOX :)

    nespresso is a coffee brand that makes little capsules of coffee to put into your coffee machine. sounds cool but actually creates huge amounts of wasted aluminium capsules, so a pen made of those capsules recycled is very awesome! good video, i enjoyed it!

      @@peter_draws Hi. When your'e drawing with a pen like this and a lot of heavy ink is saturating the paper, it appears to me that you will sometimes go over your lines with even more ink. is the ink dry when you go over it again? If not then do you find the paper damages ever? This is a problem I have when using brush pens like Posca and it kind of stresses me out. The paper kind of pulpifies under the pen. Am I using the wrong paper? Thank you.

Nespresso Capsules are those little aluminium pots that contain coffee and you put them in a machine and it makes a nice cuppa coffee.....I think.

    My Kaweco Perkeo (The hot pink and black pen) always kind of loosely rattled between the section and the barrel even when fully tightened due to poor tolerances.
    But I wrapped a thin layer of plumber's tape around the threads and now the two halves screw together so perfectly snug that it feels like one solid implement.
    Recommended for anyone with the same issue. (Although, there are still four air-holes concealed in the finial of the barrel, so it's unsuitable for eyedropper conversion without occluding them with sealant of some kind.)
    Thanks for the video, Peter.

    Probably been said already, but you can fill the handle with ink or re-fill the cartridge. Ecoline ink seems to be the most popular but I've seen others use whatever ink they want. Using the small cartridge allows you to change colors sooner rather than waiting for the entire handle to been empty. But! The cool thing is you can have one color in your cartridge and dip the nib in another color, and while you draw the color starts to blend from the nib color to the cartridge color. Very cool.

    Hey Peter! I don't know if you're gonna see this, but one of the biggest advantages of Pilot Parallel pens for art-making is that you can easily do color gradients! If you load a color in one pen, and a different color in another, then you hold the tips next to each other for a while, the color bleeds over and you can easily do a gradient--something to play around with in a future video?

    You have to try the insanely large fude nib on the Duke 551 Confucius. At low angles It’s like troweling the ink on with a palette knife but the line is pretty normal at higher angles. Sounds complicated, but it’s actually quite controllable. It’s about $35 without the fancy gift box.
