  • Brush Pen Size Guides
    Downstroke Size Guide You might have a huge collection of pens, but did you know that you can't treat them all the same? Your lettering size has to change with the specific pen. A brush script "e" is the best letter to test a pen out with. The pen should allow you to write at a size that allows the loop of the "e" to be the same width (or a hair more) than the width of the widest downstroke. It should also be large enough to form a beautiful teardrop shape inside of the loop. Use the pen grouping worksheets to know which size guide worksheet would work best for each of your pen. Practicing with each pen at the proper size will allow you to make your lettering skills shine! xo, Extra Sma Brush Pens: Cocoiro Letter Pen Monami Plus Pen 3000 Enzō by Pilot Sma Brush Pens: Zebra Funwari Fude Brush Pen Tombow Fudenosuke Hard Nib Pilot Futayaku Double-Sided Brush Pen Zebra Disposable Brush Pen (Extra Fine) Sma Medium Brush Pens: Tombow Fudenosuke Soft Nib Pentel Brush Tip Sign Pen Zebra Disposable Brush Pen (Fine) Crayola Super Tips Pigma FB Kuretake Fudegokochi All Rights Reserved.

The classification is effective for the prelimi- nary identification of pens used in crime scenes. A microsampling technique was proposed for the TLC analysis of minute quantities of inks on questioned documents. Furthermore, a combination of reflectance-mode microscope/Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and the pin-point condensation technique was proved to be useful for the precise discrim- ination of trace amounts of analogous water-soluble dyestuffs on TLC plates.

Some of the most expensive fountain pens in the world include LMont Blanc, Caran d’Ache, and Aurora. Many would recall that not too long ago, a controversy erupted over Mont Blanc’s limited-edition “Gandhi pens” and a case was filed before the Kerala High Court. There were two limited editions in fact, one in silver and the other in gold, a ‘Limited Edition 3000’ (i.e., 3,000 of it were manufactured) and a Limited Edition 241 (‘241’ for the 241 miles of the Salt March; 241 pieces of it were made). Both kinds had an image of Mahatma Gandhi on the nib. Mont Blanc’s decision to manufacture these pens provoked massive controversy: to begin with, it violated the Emblems and Names (Prevention of Improper Use) Act of 1950, which restricts use of the name or pictorial representation of Mahatma Gandhi.
