    thank you! One reason I don't use my parallel 2.4 often is because I don't care for the feel of the thin light body. I tried switching the nib/feed to my metropolitan and it works even though the threads are very tight, I imagine a lot like the sign pen, but the cap won't fit on it. Thanks for this info

  • @cheerprncess

    Thank you for this. I hate the body because its so long and so large with that cap, I like to bring these to work with me so I just ordered some of the signature pens. Cant wait for them to come to lighten my carry load.

    Thank you for the suggestion! I had been using a pilot parallel as a highlighter for a while now. I swapped it into the sign pen body to make it look nicer. I'm slightly worried about the plastic cracking. It is very tight. There hasn't been any damage after a few weeks of using it. Now I have a neat refillable highlighter that doesn't need felt tips.

    Super useful! :) Thank you!! I've been wondering for a while about other bodies to put the parallel onto. I've heard about the opus 88 one, but couldn't justify the price.

    Phenomenal suggestion for the Pilot Pens! Not too big fan of the long body of the Parallel, and having the demonstrator pen body is nice to have, especially that the parallel pens use a lot of ink

    I know this video is from 2 years ago.. I use the Pilot parallel nibs in Opus 88 demonstrator pens. The nib fits perfectly and you have a huge ink capacity of almost 4 ml.. I have a few of these pens for my urban sketching.

    • @MysteryArts
      @MysteryArts  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I tried the opus 88 and the nib kept getting stuck and had a hard time removing it-but perhaps that was a quirk of the particular pen I was using. I know a lot of people have success with the opus 88 and pilot parallel nibs.

      and the Pilot Sign pen does not seem to be sold in 2024, at least the demonstrator. It is called the Pilot SPARE Sign pen and it has a felt nib.- Anyone can find it somewhere?

    "This is a calligraphy pen. It's hard to write with." xD
    Just write a bit bigger and hey presto, it's like a smaller pen. Except bigger! Or on a huge piece of paper. Then it'll be tiny writing! Except fun!

  • @dashsunil

    The 6 mm runs out of ink quickly and the Opus 88 2-3.6ml ink (eye dropper pens) holds pilot parallels as well!! Demonstrators let you see ink level.
