New nacre types ready for research initiation so far i've used black pearl nacre and white pearl nacre (1mm thickness). i've achieve some success so far, and still working on mastering urushi part. different urushi technique is required for this special type of deep nacre inlay. this time i am challenging the deep inlay with new types of nacre: 1. iridescent Turbo Marmoratus nacre 2. mexican abalone nacre usually these nacre types are only .. Eureka Asymmetry Micro Prototyping... asymmetry micro's barrel & cap maximum thickness will be 12.4mm so, it is a slim design. when it comes to a slim fountain pen, component durability is very important. this is because when maximum thickness is thinner than usual, all the component's wall thickness will be thinner as well. ◆ to maximize durability i decided to choose several key design points: 1. converter-less, eye-dropper type i..

Super Urushi 4 has been developed Today I announce the completed development of Super Urushi 4. Urushi work has been a personal research of mine since 2019. For 5 years, I've been doing urushi research focusing mainly on durability and aesthetics. above all, urushi durability has been the main objective. when i started doing urushi on fountain pens, I didn't know much and I was told that urushi is very strong material. so I just.. ink spurt resistance test (5th gen ebonite feeder) the 5th gen ebonite feeder was based on improving/modifying the 4th gen ebonite feed design. although, it ended up becoming a completely different feeder from 4th gen. the 4th gen ebonite feeder had good ink spurt resistance. so i just assumed 5th gen will be at least similar. however, just assuming something works becuase it is a predecessor of previous gen doesn't guarantee its performance. so..

Peek Dodecagon cigar symmetry Barrel & Cap completed After completing the Ultem dodecagon cigar symmetry fountain pen, i wanted to complete in peek material as well. however, due to new version of urushi pen development and advanced technique development for Raden, much time has passed. so, since middle of last week, i started working on the peek one. currently barrel and cap is completed and i will soon work on the grip section. the grip section .. Solid Ebonite Penrest Development Initiated a couple of years ago, i developed cast-type penrest. this time, i started developing solid ebonite penrest. the result of this project will look something like the picture below. main materials can be seen below. since color rods are limited in number, black ebonite will be produced in larger quantities. the development is at initial stage, so i am getting equipments ready, in the next posting .. Super-durability type Raden research initiated I've always wanted to do Raden (techinique using mother of pearl) for urushi pens. however, due to its dubious durability i stopped myself from doing so. But I really do love the look of mother of pearl. above all it's a true beauty formed 100% naturally. therefore, i did not totally give up researching for super-durability raden technique. and today i announce the new beggining of its developme..
