    I didn't mean have you used it for stencils. I meant has anyone used it for anything. Including single stroke rollers and stuff like that.

    i took one of those, cut a hole in the bottom, emptied it. filled it with ink. duct tape the bottom. works real nice.

    when you out of ink. cut a hole thru the duct tape and fill, then retape i guess.

    Just stopping in, still nothing has really changed.....


    Uni-Posca's are awsome markers. The nibs will last you forever like a Pilot nib would. Just open it like you would a zig, and refill.

    or mix with your ink
    for extra stainage

    careful with zig 2-in-ones - I never had this problem with woodcrafts, just the smaller glue pens - occasionally you get one where the threads are mildly warped, and after you fill it with ink and use it, it pisses ink all over your hand from the threading. It's hard to notice before it happens because it tightens up and sits right but the threads aren't thick enough so it seeps up and out the cracks.

    I even tried wrapping the thing with tape after tightening the nib on but that doesn't help, alcohol based inks seem to go right past electrical tape adhesive. ;)

    this could be a bad batch in my local area as all the ones I have that are doing this came from the same store, but I figured I'd put it out there so nobody else spends a week scrubbing blue ink off their palms.

    I run a plumbing company. I have tons of teflon tape. Teflon tape won't work because the specific alcohol I'm using as a base breaks it down fairly quickly. Trust me, I've tried.

    My solution has been to use "dum-dum" - that's the industry nickname for Solid Silicon Strip Caulking... we used it in the 12volt industry to seal holes made for running wires through the firewall and such. It's basically silicon caulk that comes in strips instead of a tube, and it's not quite as sticky and always remains the same consistency. You can peel it off a year later and use it again.

    I put that around the threads before locking the nib down and that works well, but eventually the ink will find it's way out and I have to replace the dum-dum...

    I should just stick with woodcrafts haha.

    dam man, use your brain. drip more wax in it. turn the bottom until you cant turn it anymore. check for cracks.

    thats how thing work buddy, if u got too much wax, and your still got ink comin out you probably got cracks. so put your ink back, and make a new one.

    or go get a fuckin mop and solve this problem the easy way. if u cant get a mop get one of the squeezy glue pens. i found these little glitter pens that would be perfect, now i just gotta get my lazy ass out to dollarama and steal them
