Hi Pete,

Thanks so much. I'm totally patient and will be absolutely willing to drive
to San Jose to pick up the ink and the chart recorder. 
That is very nice of you.  

Kareem

Hi Kareem
I haven't forgotten to send the ink to you. I have just been too busy to
pack it up and ship it.
I have a nice Esterline Angus chart recorder with paper and pens that you
can have if you come to San Jose to pick it up. I ran it in my early
seismometer days. Now I'm all computerized.
I have house guests arriving Friday and another set arriving Monday. I will
get the ink to you in a week or so.
Pete

	Someone told me years ago to add a little glycerin to the ink to
increase
	the ink drying time and prevent clogging. I haven't tried it.

	    Thanks for your replies..
	    
	    I would love to get the cleaning fluid and wire. Where would one
	find such
	    materials? What's "OD?"

	        IT's a kinemetrics PS2 system and I need a new pen for it. I
	can't
	    seem to get a new pen from any viable sources. The manufacturer
	wants to
	    charge an enormous amount of money. I wasn't sure if anyone knew
how
	to
	    make
	    one or point me in that direction. It just looks like a metal
tube
	(very,
	    very small) that has a bend in it so that makes contact with the
	paper.
	        
	    
	    Hi Kareem,
	     
	        What is the matter with your existing pen? You can buy a
special
	    cleaning fluid for capillary pens. You can also buy fine wire
for
	cleaning
	    out small tubes. I usually use fine piano wire or hard Nichrome
	wire, ground
	    to a diagonal knife end. If you have a problem in getting
cleaning
	fluid,
	    look for paint stripper fluid containing Methylene Chloride.
	        I can buy
	     very small bore SS tube quite easily. What is the OD of your
	    existing tube? 
	     
	        Regards,
	     
	        Chris Chapman
