rattleytins Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 i got a mini on the run silver marker and its pretty shit, it doesnt flow well at all. my favorite pen out of what ive used is the otr 050 superpermanent markers. they have a nice sized nib, and insetad of an empty barrel to hold ink it has felt and works like a permanent marker. this means it wont drip atall unless u really go crazy and pour looads of ink into it. i dont see why u'd wanna make all different pens, companies such as otr have been doin it for ages, just buy a few markers...

religion Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 Problem is Rattleytins, most companys don't make their markers with the needs of a hardcore handstylist in mind. Although there is On the Run, Montana, and Bombing markers... all their inks suck, the nibs and flow are always the same, and their mad expensive. Add up the money you spend on designer "bombing" markers in a year and youve got a shitload of money that could've been spent on ink or paint. You're paying for the logo. Its your choice though, I do have my Pilot's always at the ready, and usually a couple OTR's... but homemades just offer far more miliage when it comes to destruction per square inch. Although they can get REALLY messy. Nothing beats those first five tags with a homemade thats bursting with primo home brewed ink. (In my humble opinion) ALSO... good tip Sparo, and no prob Pedro.

religion Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 Lookedat! Woodcraft with spring and actuator removed, nib replaced with cb eraser. BAM! Super juicy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSeko157 Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 hey religion, how did you get the eraser to fit inside? folding the strips? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeezerPHM Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 looks like you should try it :rolleyes: like test it out!!!!!!!!!:::edit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
religion Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 I use these all the time, so I know they work very well. Use a box cutting knife and tuck in the edges of the felt by stabbing along the four side walls of the base. Works like a charm, very durable. Oh, and yes its folded in a tented shape.

MAR Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 what i was hoping for when i bought the otr was a marker that I could do calligraphy with and get some hot drips. Instead I got a big silver marker that wont drip if you open it up and pour it on the wall.... On that note has anyone used the flow pens? are they any good? any other suggestions.

Guest -MOE LESTER- Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 i never liked OTRs. my boy had a silver one and that shit was impossible to write on REAL outdoor shit. alot of shit like mailboxes, etc is covered with dust all this other crap. they dry up shots real quick. only solution is a spray can or a super juicy mop anyone have ideas on how to replace the nibs on kiwi shoe polish bottles?

TeezerPHM Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 i think its bout making markers and making sure they work, not look pretty. p.s. and i said that because i have made one of those marker before except it didnt really work. so seko, please, quit it. and you didnt have to pm me about this shit ahahahahahahaa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i_write Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 and the ink/paint has to be thin enough to flow through the tip.. so thin the fuck out of it ! but not too thin, or you will take the opaqueness out of your ink/paint .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rattleytins Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 edding have sum short permanent markers edding 500, the nibs q crap, but take the top off and u got a heavy little barrel to use. does anyone know how to open up the pentel wet erase chalk pens? and could anyone give me any tips on how to make a cap that actually works and doesnt fall off for a pen after you've made a nib way too big for the origional cap?

rattleytins Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 o and flowpens are cool, but use loadsa ink and drip from the bottom of the nib rather than the tip, maybe try frayin it out? thats what ive hard and seen from otr flowpens anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
religion Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 Flowpens are alright, but problematic. Yes they drip, but usually not from the spot you want them too ( the nib). Instead they spill down the nib outside of the nib housing. If you learn the secret of the "slash" after juicy tags, they are pretty good for flow, and wont leak as often. The threads are notorious for leaks and cracks. I recommend Elmers childrens glue in the threads after a fresh re-inking, or short of that, strong hair gel or hair spray. Its still easier and cheaper to make a better quality mop. Ink will go a little furthur with the flowpens if your really concerned about your ink.

Quoted post Easy. Get a film canister, and wrap the base of the tip assembly with duct tape until you get a good seal with the canister.. It's gonna be messy, but it'll work in a pinch.

religion Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 No prob. You and few other select cats on here have taught me alot of valuble info on ink and marks. I still re-read old parts of this (and the ink superthread) thread now and again just for kicks. I will always help where I can. And for all you new jacks... read these threads end to end if you really want to get serious about bombing wares. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
