rekos Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 I'm doing design project for school and I've decided to try and make a marker so i came here to ask you guys what you thought was needed in a marker. I know what I like in my markers, I just wanted to gather your opinions. Remember this is just a school project, I'm not making any money from this and I possibly won't even have time to create a model. It's all in the design. My thoughts: Easy to squeeze, transparent, non leaky, wide circle tip, skinny body, easy to refill and small size. What do you guys like? Huge nib? Massive ink reserve? Ergonomic? Easy to squeeze? No drips? Chisel tip? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n8galicia Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 to be a good marker it has to have teh krinkz and have mad drips. oh, and it can't streak on paper. real writers don't like streaks on paper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acer910 Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 are you designing a marker or a mop? markers shouldnt be easy to squeeze. mops should be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rekos Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 are you designing a marker or a mop? markers shouldnt be easy to squeeze. mops should be. I havn't decided, I was leaning towards a mop as I prefer them. But for the purpose of the school maybe it's better to design a valve marker as it would enable me to showcase my work a little bit more. Considering that a mop is really just an ink container with a nip on the top. @ dapirogy and n8galicia. cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fictionix Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Ive noticed Pilot Jumbos are hard to find for me too. I live in a pretty big city and none of the micheals here or UPS stores or anywhere has them. I found one small art store that had them. So i dunno where else to look for the Pilot Jumbo. great marker by the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

injury Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 I can't find Pentel 100W L's anywhere they're discontinued. you can still buy them off the internet though. they're great little markers, although i only fuck with the little short ones. the rest are trash.

n8galicia Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 all the michaels in the bay area are tight on security. all the good markers are behind cages. the only ones left out are some shitty waterbased ones. although they have prisma packs out too.

somekat Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Just went and got a fresh shorty yesterday at art primo... I love those little guys. the 100wl looks dope though! Has anybody ever tried refilling one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anybody ever tried refilling one? http://onlymarkers.wordpress.com/2009/04/28/collector-cp-sh/ check it a few pictures down, but it doesn't sound easy. In the comments he talks about chopping off the bottom then resealing after refilling with silicon, then the obvious tape wrap. So its refillable in the sense that yes you could technically hack anything enough. but fuck it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidfrmtexas Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 My favorite markers by far have to be the k-71 chissel tip, dudes i recomend the silver, blue, red and purple! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
