My First Fountain Pen For Sketching / Lamy Safari Unboxing

[@KATPYLLLEHKO]

To fill a pen from a bottle, you should dip the nib into the ink all the way and then twist the converter. The ink is sucked up through the square-shaped breathing hole in the feeder. If the nib is not completely dipped, the ink will not be sucked in. This works not only with Lamy pens, but also with any other fountain pen.

Thanks for the information.

Hi Mei, I was searching up sketching pens and came across this video! Nice to see you are still drawing ☺️ I'm going to try this ink.

I have one of these. Writes amazingly well right out of the box for this price point.

[@johnchampion7819]

To completely fill the ink cartridge, you must repeat the filling process 2 or 3 times. each time a little more ink is drawn up.

Try the Sailor TUZU with the same ink. It only comes with Fine nib but it still draws thinner. Very consistant line thickness.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll keep it in mind for the future if I want to get another fountain pen. Currently I am using Sailor Fude, and I am loving it.

Should add that for the safari, i find that the pen only really fills if you submerge it up to the vent/hole which is near the grip section. It's like a square hole on the feed. If that hole is in the ink it will fill. I think I kept trying to fill the same way because I didn't want to make a mess! 😅🤣 But it looks like you're enjoying the pen which is nice. 😆

The first time was a little tough filling the pen. Right now I always go the easy way, which is to dip the pen in the ink.

[@heartsaliveart]

Something that I just learned is that you can get little particles in your pen right from the factory. Next time, you might want to consider rinsing it and letting it dry for a few hours. You might not have as much trouble

What nib’s size you choose to draw

Can you make a video on the use of this ink with the Lamy converter and its maintenance? How often do you need to clean up? How much ink to avoid the risk of throwing it away?

Excellent video, I just received my first fountain pen ✒️ as a gift. I just subscribed

[@MeiCArtsy]

Exciting!!! Enjoy the pen!!

las tintas a prueba de agua, hay que agitarlas antes de llenar nuestra pluma, y si utilizamos este tipo de tintas, requerirá que realicemos una limpieza a menudo, procurando no dejarla llena de tinta si no la vamos a utilizar durante algun tiempo, Un punto muy interesante de estas plumas es su ergonomía que facilita un agarre cómodo y eficaz, que nos permitirá escribir o dibujar durante largas sesiones

Which nib size will be better for drawing fine or medium?

[@MeiCArtsy]

Currently I only have an extra fine nib.

[@rishikannan9111]

@@MeiCArtsythank you so much

[@adishrathod1479]

Nice

[@MeiCArtsy]

Thanks 😃

Carbon ink is not for fountain pens. Your pen is gonna get clogged and you’re gonna have a really hard time trying to clean it if you leave the ink in the pen. Carbon ink is for dip pens, brushes, or eye dropper pens. You need thinner inks like Waterman for a standard fountain pens.

[@MeiCArtsy]

Aww, thanks for the info, no wonder after a while, the ink wasn't flowing well. But I've switched to Octopus ink and to Sailor fude and have been loving it.

Bel colore

[@aaronncz]

I wish u at least a semi-decent pen. U deserve something reasonable if u draw often. U can use this for mixed media projects whenu tend to fck up ur tools, but. The lamy nibs are okay, but they feel like a joke compared to even faber castell nibs. I can only recommend the later though

[@MeiCArtsy]

Thank you 😊

[@l333ch0r]

its probably an interessting video, but something fooled, because the titel is my language and not in the original. so excuse, that i downvoted and left after few seconds.

[@Antisympathy]

I’ve just purchased this fountain pen on Amazon left handed however a different color. Can’t wait to try it out because other fountain pens I’ve tried the ink never flowed.🥲🤞🏾
