Supply Shopping In Israel / Yerushalayim

By Anonymous -
This is a little different than our usual topic.  I will soon have the opportunity to be in Yerushalayimg for the first time since becoming a sofer.  Any recommendations for places I can buy supplies including stocking up on some klaf, and some tikkunim.
Also, any good seforim stores in the yerushalayim that will have a good selection on st'am.

    you can go to klaf back he is right above shikun chabad if you take alias rabbi nanus the other stores are harder to find because they rely on word of mouth to find them i would have to check my notes i have the number to yaakov klaf (ps it is very hard to find it is in shuk meah shearim after the steablach)0546420301 you will like their store because of the variety of different stuff they have they have a high quality of klaf back is a little less because people say there klaf is to smooth but it is a little cheaper and a find that after ai use sanpaper a little there is no problem there are many other stores but i don't know how to describe where they are

    This link is one of my diary/blog posts about shopping for supplies in Yerushalayim. http://www.sofer.co.uk/html/diary_38.html
    You may find it useful as I have pics and addresses. K'laf Beck has sadly been shut every time I've gone. I tend to go to Keset Hasofer as my main supply place, but Hasofer is also good and the sofer there is very nice.

Ink, Kosher vs. non-Kosher

By -
We all know that there is no ancient source that requires ink to be מן המותר בפיך . Possibly, as said here before, because in the olden days ink was always  מן המותר בפיך and the question was never raised. It was probably self-evident. Nowadays, no decent Rav will approve an ink which is not מן המותר בפיך  . Who was the first one to raise this question? Was it raised because of animal ingredients or because of non-kosher wine?

The forum is back online...for reference and research purposes.

 Dear Readers and Members, The forum has been down for over 6 months because the domain name (www.stamforum.com) lapsed and it is no longer available to re purchase. Although this forum is now defunct (it has morphed into several whatsapp groups), I have had many requests to put it back online because it contains so much information (over 1,800 posts and thousands of comments in the discussions, on a wide range of topics related to STa"M). I have therefore put the forum back online at blogger, so the address is www.stamforum.blogspot.com. The forum lasted for a decade...not a bad effort! It was pretty popular back in the days before whatsapp and managed to receive over a million hits in it's short life. It was one of the only organised forums in the  STa"M world and definitely the largest in it's heyday. I would like to thank all those who cobtributed over the years, particularly the early members who helped build it up. Thanking you all, Eli
