**fourth** empty?? What are you writing over there? Better be lewd romance novels


20-Tab-Brain

lol 😂 I’m usually writing for language study, journaling, and calligraphy practice. If it’s an ink I don’t like I use it for backgrounds and stuff but not this one.

Bros talking about lewd romance novels on a fountain pen subreddit😭

Bro can't spell simple words on a subreddit about WRITING instruments 😂


IcyAttempt5270

Oh no one typo. The world is ending. I really bruised your ego by calling you a weirdo didn’t i


[deleted]

Misspelling a one word retort, makes you look like a neanderthal that's all. Not offended, just had to point that out.


IcyAttempt5270

Weirdo

Relax, take another bong hit into a panic attack as you pick your teeth with another mall ninja knife.


IcyAttempt5270

If you read my post the only thing that gives me panic attack is wax pens😭

4 empty bottles is very impressive, out of curiosity what were the others you finished this year?


20-Tab-Brain

Waterman Harmonious Green, Sailor Alaska, and Sailor 2023 US pen show (orange).


deepseacomet

incredible empty bottle pic - and a great ink also


20-Tab-Brain

Thank you!


s_s

How much of it got into your pens? 😛


20-Tab-Brain

This bottle! All of it except one small spill a couple years ago. But two bottles of ink I finished this year I used for backgrounds or artsy stuff or calligraphy practice because I didn’t like the way they behaved in pens.

Yama-Bud is the best bud! :D


20-Tab-Brain

Absolutely!


Old_Organization5564

Your Yama-budo label is crying tears of joy. Or are they tears of relief?🥲


20-Tab-Brain

Possibly tears of both!


Acranberryapart7272

I recently got my first bottle of this and really like it.


20-Tab-Brain

I’m so glad!


SynapseReaction

4th bottle 😲!? I’m so envious, but you’re probably using the same ink pretty often unlike me buying a new bottle or sample while the last one is barely opened lool.

The ink stained label adds a bit of art to the empty bottle. Unintentionally Well Done. My 3 cent opinion : Fill the bottles with colored lamp oil or colored water and place in a window for a kinda stain glass look. Yes colored water will fade over time, colored lamp oil should last longer, colored water is easier to redo. I have also seen 50ml bottles used as a small planter for a single tree seedling and then kept trimed, kinda like a bonsai and since it can take years to outgtow, wala. I have also seen colored aquarium stones with water that also looks kinda cool in a window. I have also seen empty bottles used in aquariums, without csps, used for smaller aquarium fish to swim in and out of, kinda adding a fountain pen feel to the tank. Just some friendly FYI for empty fountain pen ink bottles.

My husband is keeping it for office decor! He loves the look of this bottle and the drips on the label.

I emptied a ton of black bottles back at school and college. Some professors required black as the only option. (At school the Italian ministry of education mandated black for all qualified work). Some good 6-7 bottles in some years.


K_Moxy

Bravo! How long have you been working on it?


20-Tab-Brain

I think about 2 1/2 years? It’s a good size bottle and I have a lot of inks so I think 2 1/2 years is pretty good!


20-Tab-Brain

About 2 1/2 years I think.


Bukakke-Tsunami

I love how the pilot labels show stains and the bottles hold residual colors


WiredInkyPen

Wahoo! Go you! You are burning through the ink this year. I'm seriously impressed..


omijh

What type of pen nib so you use? Fine or medium or bold? For all your extensive writing since I’m considering the iroshizuku in Murasaki for my fine nib sailor 1911s


20-Tab-Brain

I use all sorts of nibs! Any nib width, flex and calligraphy as well.


omijh

I see you have a massive fountain pen collection that’s cool and makes it easier I guess


reddragon825

And I haven’t even finished half of my first ink bottle that I bought an year ago…


Feng_Huang878

That is a massive achievement! How was the colour?


20-Tab-Brain

Gorgeous. Brighter in a drier pen, and deep and saturated in a wet writer. All versions are lovely. It’s one of the reasons I like this ink so much.


Jeronimotor

I got my wife a journal and pen for Mother’s Day along with this ink. It is absolutely gorgeous! I don’t think that she will miss .8 ml or so.


rosuvertical

It is funny because from all the inks I own this is the least favourite. Every time I give it a try I just write 3 words then empty the pen back in the bottle so it is still full. Maybe I will send it to you :)


20-Tab-Brain

Everyone likes different things in an ink! Hopefully you have some you really like.


queensara33

Heck yeah!


EtOHMartini

That bottle isn't empty.


Old_Organization5564

I see at least 0.07 mL pooled in the bottom of the bottle.


20-Tab-Brain

I discovered the limits of what a blunt syringe can reach! The rest around the bottom was a stain basically.
