Question to Yosef Chaim B

ReplyDeletei use a glass medicine dropper that comes with a small glass bottle
the 3-tiered writing surface i use has an extended arm for holding ink bottles.

For long-form writing I use a dropper bottle. R. Eliezer Adam shows how in http://youtu.be/AUSfTl2FsD8 (part of his series of STAM videos), at the 4:35 mark.
ReplyDeleteFor tikunim I use a Nahari inkwell (the inkwell is set in a block of lucite for stability).
Wow, it's pro-tips like this that really help me most from this site. I just use an old single-serving jam jar from last year's mishloach manos. :)
