Editing The Pen Addict 246/transcript

Speaker 2: So we ran a little bit long last week and where we're heading down that path this week but we had some nasty PA that we didn't get to last week I wanna make sure we do it so and these aren't very long one so I think what's knock these out and we'll call it a day how's that sound.
Speaker 3: Sounds good to me.
Speaker 2: All right so this is what I been wanting to get to and Michael Michaela says.
Speaker 2: When we were talking about the professional easy to use fountain pens for under one hundred dollars army was for a graduation president president.
Speaker 3: To.
Speaker 2: Move too much president of my mind graduation present.
Speaker 2: The lami studio I got like three emails on that I was like aw I'm such a dummy that's the perfect one.
Speaker 3: That's.
Speaker 2: That should be back to answer ice that should be my go to answer instead of like gum.
Speaker 2: Being challenged to come up with like the perfect pen for that price range like in the fifty to one hundred dollar price range I think the lami studio will please just about anyone who you purchase it for it's a really really quality pen made well writes well great nodes arm and get a bottle ink with that or you can use the lobby cartridges in it it just looks like the graduation gift type of pen but it's still like a step up from say like you know your traditional cross roller balls things like that.
Speaker 3: It's a good show.
Speaker 2: Yep so this question from Nick I thought was super interesting do you dial up a piston filler as the ink gets used I would like to hear from the chat room if you do that because I understand maybe the theory why but I don't see there's no need for it on your inks going to flow normally if you do that you're going to have to have the blind cap loosened arm as you go and it's just gonna be you know more chance for damage there's no need to ever do that I'm just wondering if people do I don't I don't know anyone that does there's no.
Speaker 2: Technical reason why you should arm vacuum fillers are different story but just a traditional piston now you don't need to do that and I'd I'd be surprised if we found that anyone who does that on a regular basis.
Speaker 3: Now I I would be just terrified them gonna spraying everywhere.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 2: Right so there's just no need for it armed and you're just stuff causing an extra point of failure or two when you do that.
Speaker 3: So stop at neck.
Speaker 2: He didn't say you did it but just know has a.
Speaker 3: Stop at a mosque in the thinking about it.
Speaker 2: Don't do it Nick yeah noni so Chris wants to know what's the best pen clip holder to attach to a notebook or traveler's notebook so use which won the which term arm for like your apple pencil.
Speaker 3: If it's okay like Penn looped and yes yes what I love those things that stupid study days the stick like the the the the glue on them is super strong like I thoroughly recommend a product like I have I have one I've replaced one once on my.
Speaker 3: Pro and I've had it for the eighteen months.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So yes Sir and Alex then up super cheap like yeah I really really recommend the lunch time to look.
Speaker 2: Yes I don't use any almost amusing like a traditional travelers arm I'll just take one pen stick it through the exterior or I will put it to the letter I don't necessarily go for the.
Speaker 2: Exterior pen clips so it's kinda not my thing.
Speaker 2: Tom designing something where you won't have to ask this question okay yeah.
Speaker 3: Locate yes.
Speaker 3: Keep that also going buddy.
Speaker 2: So Ron wants to know whether any papers that work well with both fountain pens and pencils home to knock no books really do arm.
Speaker 3: Kids I'm also going.
Speaker 2: Full full disclosure I make those that be the right note pads really do like my fountain pens in these right no pads work great on in their more recent additions like in the pines and they work awesome for pencils like you don't know you basically just won't don't use something with a glossy texture like Rhodia generally those aren't the best for pencils there's a little bit more spot smudging doesn't feel as nice.
Speaker 2: Com so yeah that's that's what I would go with arm knock and right note pads.
Speaker 2: All right last one Jonathan says I recently struggle to write on a plastic logic luggage tag hotel ball point work best what traditional ball point should be in my EDC so you go first because you're wrong.
Speaker 3: All right great.
Speaker 3: I personally just don't.
Speaker 3: Like points right because they tend to be in my opinion boring so don't go boring is what I say you can just get yourself a richer fifty one slim.
Speaker 3: Which is a ball point and then you got fun and they have some great designs and that's what I'm going to say single wrong.
Speaker 2: No that's a great pen I'm I just don't use it because if I'm gonna go ball point I want more useful ballpoint and I'm gonna go to a Fisher space pen refill and because of the utility of that if I write a lot of responsibility.
Speaker 3: Right Michael right out of fishes may spend like to the point that we even bowl a bunch of laser engraved on the.
Speaker 2: Ticket yes.
Speaker 3: Right like yes I like them a lot but it's still not my go to.
Speaker 2: Right so my go to is actually that refill on the show design.
Speaker 2: Which I.
Speaker 3: Just.
Speaker 2: I can't get enough of that band that's my pocket pen of choice when I go out to just have.
Speaker 2: In case I need it like if I go to baseball practice and you know we need to write something on some kids call of so he doesn't leave it behind her in his hat I can break out that Penn and I know it's not gonna get damaged while I'm out there running around on the field too and I just like to have the utility of a Fisher space pen refills not the best writer in the world but definitely the highest utility value of any type of ball point enough that's what I would recommend.
Speaker 3: The recommendation.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah I I know you really like that show designed pens.
Speaker 2: So.
Speaker 3: It's just a little bit like.
Speaker 2: Too.
Speaker 3: Aggressive for me you know.
Speaker 2: Sure.
Speaker 3: I'm.
Speaker 2: Totally understand yes and in the chat room and this is something I very much believe in they mentioned I always use the Fisher find refills they always ship with mediums I keep a stock of fine in this weapon swapping right out fine blue Fisher space pen refill is the root.
Speaker 2: Fisher space pen refills that you should use in my opinion but Hey.
Speaker 2: I have opinions and they often get me in trouble could you say.
Speaker 3: You take maybe you have opinions.
Speaker 2: Old god you're terrible we should in the show now.
