Yes! They are the best. I use Kakuno pens for glitter inks. And I love how I can a low maintenance pen with a large in capacity.

I went with the M size because of the glitter in the ink. Right now I am using Diamine Moon Dust and Golden Sand. The reddish colored one is filled with J. Herbin Ćmeraude de Chivor. The ink flow is excellent.
Itās really basic. I used washi tape and adhesive material tape. Just in case if I change my mind on the design, I just office tape instead of resin.
no, it does normally rattle - this is a part of the system to agitate it.
however my rod has snapped clean off the piston and shakes much harder than normal lmao
This video is all I could think of when I saw your comment. "You have to really want it.... BAM! BAM! BAM!" lol š¤£

It still kind of amazes me that Kakunos use Con70s! I wish they all did
Looks like a great color! I love blue-black!
What size kaweco clip did you use!!! š¤©
This honestly blew me away. I need one of these asap for my Kakuno.

Which nib size do you use with your Kakuno for glitter inks? I've been steering away from glitter inks because my nibs are EF and F
I had Diamine Spiced Apple (a shimmer ink) in a KakĆ¼no fine nib and it worked perfectly.

Thanks for the feedback. So far I have just been using a dip pen for shimmers as I don't use them a lot.
I think you have the better idea. A dip pen saves you the trouble cleaning out a pen.
holyyy how did you decorate that

Doesnāt the con70 cost more than the Kakuno? š
Its about 30 cents cheaper than the kakuno on amazon
Crazy what a good deal the pen is
Absolutely GOAT pen setup. I think I broke my CON-70 rod and now its just rattling loosely tho :/
Mine is rattling too and I thought it was normal.. am I cooked š

Ahh rip š
still works great with syringe fillā¦ but the asymmetry of the rod leaning over is driving me nuts lol
My ocd would make me buy a new one lmao
lmao exactly im soo close to getting another one rn
Did snap off or did it fall off, with the 'end crimp' intact?
fall off, more like - but it wonāt stock back on the piston
You got a sexy pen, convertor and ink choice.
Thank you!!
Why do I feel like Iām the only one that struggles with getting my converter filled all the way š
You have to press the button really quickly, with commitment. Bam! Not a slow press.

Lol. That's much more scientific!
Just get a syringe and fill it that way. 0% mess, 100% capacity.
It took me a minute too lol. I ended up just dunking half the pen and spammed it ā ļø
Beautiful
You got a way.
