26:04—Emotional attachment to pens
- What do your fountain pens mean to you? Has this changed over time?
- Is there a pen that is particularly meaningful, and why?
- Do you feel more connected to a pen when you have had it for a long time, or when you know its history?
- What do you think your pens say about you?
- How would you feel if all your fountain pens were lost in a fire? Would you want to find exact replacements for your favourite pens or would you start over afresh?

- Therese Brand: I'd love to have a better understanding of the different flex nibs vs waverly/cursive/italic, stub/music, zoom nibs etc from the different brand...pros & cons, your own preferences and why?
- Ayeneneyeee: What has been your favourite fountain pen related experience, fact, or skill you've learnt this year?
- Ayeneneyeee: Fountain pen goals for next year? This can be a pen (or let's be honest, pens) you're chasing, a new direction for your collection (russian vintage or even a big cull?), or maybe you're considering exploring new terrain (e.g. nib tuning, urban sketching, ink making...).
- Sharyn: How much ink is “enough”?
- Father Kyle: Self reflections on doing a full year of podcasting about pens.
- Paperlate: It seems like a few of you have extensive Japanese pen collections; it would be great to hear what some of your favourite pens are in each of your collections.

32 - Build Your Own Chimera
Friday Nov 09, 2018
Friday Nov 09, 2018
Our hosts have a lively discussion on the topic of chimeras - pens built out of parts that didn’t originally go together. Are chimeras an abomination? Or is a little “frankensteining” sometimes a necessity? What about when it’s done for fun or self-expression? And if we could each build our own dream pen, what would it be?
