JigaboosPigaboos Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Yeah I dont like the fact that OTR is just glue pens that they dressed up so 13 year old "sk8r bois" would buy their product cause it made them feel like real graffiti taggin writer vandals. Plus their ink sucks. See maybe OTR is a conspiracy to give shitty writers the least permanent inks and shittiest most expensive pens so that their horrible attempts at handies will stay non permanent like a fucking whiteboard. Ill bet you seen is behind this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S!n7 Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 that looks very dope...i dont see the different between a OTR and a posterman and which homemade nib would you guys say causes more drips a chalkboard eraser or a rolled up sock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slipone Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 Bump asdf_va for spreading the knowledge of the OTR marker. also Bump everyone on his respect list. another Bump for Junobo for posting a pictorial up. That mop looks nice. what kind of base is it? Also junobo do you sell extra nibs for your mini mops? Cuz i was out today and ripped the cloth on one. Im down to pay for a new nib, but if you could tell me what kinda cloth you used then that would be coo too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slipone Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 haha fo sho. hmm illl go looking for one at a Michaels near me and hope that they have one, or something similar. Yeah it works w/o the cloth but its kinda "streaky" when you write cuz its just the plastic pump on the inside thats writing, you know whats up no need to explain. hmm ill look into buying an empty mop proally then.

rabiater Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 S!n7 The Posterman has a softer squeezable body and you don't feel as bad when you melt it together for pocketsized action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabiater Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 Nibs out of socks actually work pretty nice. Heres a Dovemop with a juicedup socknib; You don't need to worry about nibs falling into the containers if you use self vulkanizing tape, wrap it around the top letting a bit of the tape stick out and folding it over the opening of the container. In a couple of minutes you will have a onep iece membrane with a small hole in the middle. Insert the nib into the hole and it will form itself around the nib securing it in place.

xdropxdead Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 all the right. marsh ink 45$.... they are just as expensive as scrap yard with just as much heat. not to mention they are selling empty mops for 6$ although they do carry violet pricing gun ink.. however they are selling for 16$ 4 oz.

Yeah, depending on the amount you buy and where from. Like kartoonkilla said, you can get it for much cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabiater Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 asdf_va! They're awesome indeed, love the way it flows (so much that i needed to make a sneaky junior version). I've set my mind on never getting my hands on "commercial" flows again except the Uni PX-30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NayS Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 hey, just wondering. is there anyway to mix ink with some sort of wax to make a giant staining wax crayon sorta thing?? something that would work in wet conditions if you know what i mean.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asdf_va! Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 some of us on here have been talking about that, but I don't know a good recipes that would really mark well, and stay solid at the same time... I am personally looking into what the common streak/oil bar has in it, so I can recreate it with my own colors, and shapes, sizes, etc... Keep checking back, I know it will be on here sooner or later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JigaboosPigaboos Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 Another type of paint marker is the solidified paint pen. This is a type of marker, often contained within a twist tube, that is a cylinder of semi-hardend oil-paint with a pointed tip. As one writes with it, the point wears down and must be advanced to in order to continue writing. The marker leaves a mark similar to that of chalk. It is useful for marking on wet or oily surfaces. It is sold under the brand name MeanStreak in the United States. It is made by Sanford, the maker of Sharpies, but there are many different brands and types of solidified paint pens Theres some stuff about meanstreaks. I couldnt really find anything very useful.

I couldnt really find anything very useful. ^^If anyone here doesn't know what he is talking about... Please look up "Mean Streak" in google. Everyone should know what a streak is by this point. Jiga: Most people know of these already... I was talking about finding a home made formula to make these from scratch. I want to make my own of what you described^^ above. Check out the metal heads section for flicks of freights. People have used these "streaks" for over 70 years to write their traveling name on the sides of the cars they hopped on to get around for free. ^^I'm a little stoned right now... but you guys all know this right?? I'm just now realizing that I'm telling you stuff I had assumed you already knew? You guys know this stuff right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xROGUEx Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 I fucking love my ghetto mini wide, I used it all up today. I used a CVS photo-glustick, with a chalkboard eraser nib. Refills in the bottom, but you'll have to find your own way o do that, because it's really complicated the way I did it. Ace hardware is opening by my house soon, so I'm gonna make one of those PVC markers. I'll post pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
projetmayhem Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 what do should i do to hold the nib in place in my chapstick marker? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S!n7 Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 that little plastic stick thats already in the middle should hold it up and out enough to mark with it but if you cut that plastic stick already just get a fatter nib and stuff it in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
