I lacquer with urushi for quite some time, but I started selling my pens a little over a year ago. Important event in my journey was a pen I made for ‪@sbrebrown‬ , an important quide in my education on fountain pens for many years. Pen I sent to Stephen was reviewed by him, features several times in other videos, made it to his personal collection, and finally became a GOAT 2020 ( • Greatest of All Time 2020 ).
In this video I talk about this story and later I show how a series of pens (5 to be exact) came to be. And if you want "GOAT pen" - follow my Instagram, I'll offer them soon.
Most pens I show are for sale, and the best way to buy them is to check out my Instagram and send me a message there. There are usually some pens stock and you can find them here : tamenuri.com/stock/

I'm Michael and I'm a fountain pen addict. I lacquer pens with urushi lacquer. I make fountain pens. On my channel, you fill find tutorials, videos from my urushi workshop, presentation of techniques, tools and materials used in urushi craft. I am also showing pens lacquered by me and other artists. I review pens but mostly urushi and I focus on this aspect of a pen, not usual build, nibs and writing performance.
I am self-taught in this craft, most I know I do I learned from my own experience, trial and error. A lot of them. But also from Japanese books, and videos on urushi and other urushi artists.

I bought a cigar case that fits two cigars to house my current model 5 and hopefully another one. Looking forward to these being available.

Hi Michael, what is the white paste you use for polishing ?
@TamenuriStudio
@TamenuriStudio 3 жыл бұрын
I use several different polishing pastes on this video. Sanjet p-555 and p-616, migakiko with oil, two other Sanwa powders (white and green dozuri) mixed with oil, fine tonoko with oil, same but filtered. I also use sumiko (charcoal) with water and/or oil but I think i did nit show it.

Instead of sanjet you can use any other non-silicone pastes made for car paint - they are available in many grits and consistencies. Meguiars, Menzerna, Farecla just name a few brands.

Hello, would you share about how to apply urushi to the threads? Is there anything special to prevent urushi from pealing off the threads? Thanks!

In simple words? Good threads (cut with urushi in mind) are the Key. Then - primer (only nuri kasane, very thin. Then your target layers - usually No more than 3. And each time cure super well. If i had to elaborate - it’s a material for 2 long videos ;)) It’s difficult. And my threads are not always perfect. But then never peel off, but they might be subiect to wearing faster on some pens. As I said - the better you cut the threads, the easier is to lacquer them properly. On pens made not taking urushi into account while cutting threads it’s often almost impossible.

How do you store your urushi and how long can it be stored before it is unusable? Thanks
@TamenuriStudio
@TamenuriStudio 2 жыл бұрын
Raw - refrigerated. Other - in dry płace ;) there is no precise rule - some can loose properties after 6-9 months, some are strong and cure well even several years old.
