  If you like fountain pens enough to give them another shot, a couple suggestions: > but I've ruined too much stuff with ink spills. Try a pen with replaceable cartridges instead of an ink well. Pilot makes pens like this, and I'm sure other companies do as well. > Also I burn through legal pads as scrap paper and I imagine I would get bad bleeding on that paper. Yep, legal pad paper is pretty much the worst thing ever for fountain pens. I won't recommend specific brands because everybody has different tastes on paper, but spend some time on /r/fountainpens and you'll get several dozen options for paper that works great with fountain pen ink.

    I'll give it a thought. I'm not tied to legal paper but I do a lot of quick math and scratch work so I would like to have a disposable paper option.
