15:31 1) I got a sample of Diamine Lilac Satin and I'm looking for a lighter lavender ink—any recommendations? Also, what's a good beginner-friendly flex nib pen?
23:29 2) Isn’t the rubber sac Pilot converter mainly for cleaning, not ink use? I usually refill cartridges or use a Con-40. Why do they ship pens with the rubber one?
27:43 3) What fountain pen content do you watch or listen to—any YouTube channels, podcasts, or other recs?
36:06 4) I've used Diamine Night Sky in a medium nib daily for a year with no issues, but now I'm dealing with frequent flow problems and cleanings. Any tips besides switching inks to help?
55:23 5) Can the Laban Skeleton be eyedropper filled?
