#FountainPens

Proposal: To reuse those tiny Tabasco bottles as travel containers for fountain pen ink.

Problem is, the barrel of the converter doesn't fit inside the bottle mouth. But the tip does. So MAYBE there's a potential system whereby I can turn it upside down, fill it like a syringe from a medicine vial, and NOT risk spilling ink everywhere? Maybe involving some sort of rubber gaskety thing?

look, i can dream

TWSBI Pipe

@paradoxmo OOOH. Considering that one reason I considered the Tabasco bottle was to solve precisely this problem (using a syringe to transfer those last CCs out of the original bottle into the tiny bottle), that may indeed be the implement I'm looking for! Thank you!

(Looking closer at the product, it may or may not work with my converters. At that price point, though, the experiment might well be worth it.)

@NicoleJLeBoeuf if the TWSBI Pipe doesn’t work out, you could try an ink miser instead, that allows small amounts of ink to be filled by whatever piston or converter you have.
