Your pen has two ways of inking. At the moment, it has what is called a converter installed. You need a bottle of ink to fill it. The screw fitting lets you suck the ink up into the pen. Otherwise, you can remove the converter and push the cartridge into the pen. Writing with a fountain pen is exceptional. I hope this helps.
I always get excited when I see a new ericsurf6 in the morning :) I collect fountain pens, and you'll want to remove that twist-style ink converter from the pen by pulling it out. You insert the cartridge into the pen (narrow side first) and press hard until it seats into place and the seal on the cartridge becomes pierced. Ink will eventually run through the feed and into the nib, which allows it to write by gently gliding it across the paper. It should require no pressure once the ink is flowing, reducing hand fatigue. Sometimes that process can take a while when it is used for the first time. The twist converter is what you would use if you have a bottle of ink. You'd submerge the entire nib into the ink bottle, then twist the end of the converter to suck the ink into the converter and keep it contained while it is being used until it dries out or runs out.
I love how Mega is becoming more talkative, you have a wonderful interaction with your son. I'm not much of a beef eater, but I do love a really tasty hamburger occasionally. Chef always does a fantastic job on the salad. Have a great day! Get some!
The look on Mega's face when he was trying the beer was priceless 😂 Maybe that's why it was an initial four heads? Lol! Another great score of food from vending machines-everything looked absolutely delicious. Thanks for another great video, guys (and Chef, of course!) Much love ❤️ ❤
🖖 Greetings! Interesting to see Izu craft beers (Fruit Ale & Weizen), A5 Wagyu beef, and Toyama's Black Ramen. I agree with you about Suntory -196 being too fruit forward, I believe that canned cocktail is now being sold in the USA. Thanks for the dispatches from the land of vending machines! 🗾🙂👍
Always lovely to read your comments, you might be interested to know that I managed to buy Suntory 196 for my son, who recently came back from Japan, for Christmas here in Western Australia! I forget to have a taste though but they smelled very lemony 😊
I love that Mega spends time with you on these adventures. As a dad of boys who are a few years behind yours, getting them to do stuff like this would be no go! Enjoy the time with them!
The honor system is really crazy and awesome it you compare it to almost any other country in the world. Studied in Tokyo myself for 6 months and can´t compare my Country (Germany which is relatively safe as well) or any other place I´ve been to with Japan
Eating that beef Korean style was the way to go! But man it all looked good. The honor system thing is so amazing to me... such a safe culture. That place would be empty in about 3 minutes here in the States lol. Great video guys!
I’ve been binge watching since I discovered your channel last week and I love the videos where Mega joins you at the vending machines, so it was awesome to see him pop up at the beginning here!
Japan has so many noodle dishes-- thin noodles, thick, wide, dry, miso base, soy sauce base, tonkatsu, and more. I love trying different textures, flavors, and mix-ins. I particularly like bold and strong flavors. No wimpy flavors for me. Thanks for sharing this eating adventure.
The fountain pen you got. The cartridge with plunger inside the pen is for bottled ink. You put the nib in the ink and draw the ink up with the plunger. That should be able to be removed from the pen and you would insert the cartridge of ink in it's place. This pen will use bottled ink OR the cartridge. I love writing with a fountain pen. We were taught from the age of 7 years old to write with a pen and ink. Our desks had ink wells in them which had to be filled by the ink monitor every week from a large bottle. We used blotting paper to stop blots. Happy New Year to you, Chef and Mega.🍾🍾🍾
concerning the pen: you have to swap the little pump with the inkcartridge, squeeze it a little bit so that the ink reaches the nib, and you can write ... the little pump is to pump up ink from a real container ...
😮😮😮 first try, a camera! Lucky! Regarding the ranch dressing, never tried making it from homemade. We seem to have a growing variety of types in our stores lol.
I love this channel and would love to win a snack pack some day. This is one of my favorite channels to watch. I personally get excited when I see a 6 rating .
It’s so awesome getting to watch mega and dudes got it growing up over the years it’s crazy how fast time is going by in life. Another amazing video Eric and Mega and Chef. I’m always looking forward to the next Eric meal time.
I'm convinced those King's Treasure Box machines have nothing good in them but I also know that if I were in Japan and saw one I'd still have to try it once.
There's a bunch of wagyu shops that now do vending machines out front as well it's wild. A5 but also various other cuts and grades for various other things as well. It's a wonderful option for both seller and buyer m
I like to start my day with your videos! And a great refillable pen. It all depends on whether you like cartridges or fancy ink that comes in many colours. My favourite is a golden ink.
It's super cold and windy here in the northeast US and seeing that delicious ramen with the juicy beef just warmed me up. Going to be craving ramen all day! Get some!!
I never tasted Wagyu beef, too expensive and hard to find here in Norway, but one day. That meal looked like a real treat, vending machines in Japan is such a cool thing over there, and I love that you got the self-check-outs, speaks volumes about the trust within a community when that is achieveable. Love the videos, keep em coming! :)
I’m completely convinced I could live off of Chef’s salads for the rest of my life. They all look so good 😩
I think you're right
I still say Mamma is the best chef!! Her food always looks amazing! Even when it's just a salad & dressing!

Nice you took the family along for vending machine shopping.

You both seemed to love chef's salad and dressing the most when eating it. Great video again!

Yessss made it early !!!! Great morning to see you and Mega😊. Thank you for another video. Much love from N.Y.
Love these videos with Father and Son. Mega for the win
...And dont forget the CHEF!
Eric we just love you all here in Southern Oregon! Thank you and Mega for the wonderful videos and experiences!
Love from Oregon 🎉
Love the video! I think what would make a interesting video, is if Mega goes solo and picks out some vending foods to try.
The honor system is really crazy and awesome it you compare it to almost any other country in the world. Studied in Tokyo myself for 6 months and can´t compare my Country (Germany which is relatively safe as well) or any other place I´ve been to with Japan
Love the random thing you can buy in these vending machines oh how I miss Japan
Eating that beef Korean style was the way to go! But man it all looked good. The honor system thing is so amazing to me... such a safe culture. That place would be empty in about 3 minutes here in the States lol. Great video guys!
Looks good! I love pesto, so I probably would've liked more of the basil sauce on that pasta.😛
I can tell Chef really cares for you guys.. Always makes sure you have something "green" for health.
Mamma is the best!
Absolutely respect you both so so much! Japan is so beautiful and peaceful. Hope to be back there very SOON. God bless and Godspeed 🙏!
Y'all are the OG japan food youtubers 🤜🤛
Honori's meat shop A5 wagyu vending machine with premium dog food items as well? Don't change, Japan! This is so unique!
The Wagyu looked delicious, considering there from a vending machine 🥩😋A very yummy looking chefs salad 🥗 to.Thanks for sharing Eric n Mega 🍻🥢🍜
Great that the family went on a vending machine find. Looks like the meat was very good. I guess Mega is not a beer drinker from the look on his face.
It was a great assortment of foods tonight! Thanks for inviting us along😂
So happy to hear that Chef was out and about walking with you and Mega.
Just had a Quick Trip lunch, and the only thing satisfying is watching Eric and Mega meal time.
I get so hungry every time I watch lol
🥳Great way to start the day ! ERIC and MEGA!
AND CHEF!!
Watching these videos always makes me hungry! I'm having a hot flash right now & enjoying a bowl of ice cream!
I love the entrance once again! Best way to enter any room. 🤣

They are so imaginative with their vending machines.

Good video Ericsurf6 & Mega
And thanks for the FLASHBACK ...

Home made dressings. Chef does her household proud as well as enticing you to eat your veggies/salad. Fun flashback to that treasure box win.
Delicious looking meal!! The chefs salad was rocking tonight!! Yum!!
Mega is so polite.I love watching videos with mega in it
A5 Waygu in a vending machine, now I've seen everything! :D
Yummy beef! I would eat it all. Chef makes everything look so appetizing. Cheers to the chef!
Never had Wagyu beef but it definitely looks amazing.
I wished I could live where you can have open vending rooms. Wonderful.
In most cities in America they would steal the machines soon after delivery sad to say but true.
Banger of a video Eric, Mega and Chef! Always a great selection of food!
I love this channel and would love to win a snack pack some day. This is one of my favorite channels to watch. I personally get excited when I see a 6 rating .
I still think it's amazing how and what comes out of vending machines. Thanks Eric.
It’s so awesome getting to watch mega and dudes got it growing up over the years it’s crazy how fast time is going by in life. Another amazing video Eric and Mega and Chef. I’m always looking forward to the next Eric meal time.
What a variety of deliciousness! Thanks for sharing!
The black ramen looked fantastic.
Hi Eric
I'm glad Mega is talking more in the videos
Cheers Eric 🍻
Hey, Eric, Mega and Chef, I love the vending machine videos, keep up the great work. Hope you all had a great xmas and New Year, love you guys
I'm convinced those King's Treasure Box machines have nothing good in them but I also know that if I were in Japan and saw one I'd still have to try it once.
Love these vending machine videos! Stay warm over there 😊
Love the vending machine videos and your entrances before the feast. Hoping to win a getsome snack pack!
Incredible meal with some good A5 Wagyu to end it
When I See Eric doing vending machines it only can be delicious. Awesome good in These machines. Yummy
Yum everything looks delicious can't wait to go back to Japan and try some vending machines when I was stationed in Japan we didn't get out a lot
The King vending machine would get me! I'm not a gambler but the mystery aspect is so fun! Love and light to the Surf6 family❤
So many unique dishes! Japan is bangin’!
Hahaha that's awesome the kings treasure box!! I missed that vending machine so glad you did it again.oh the food looked great too. #CheersandBeers
Aloha!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! I would love to try all the food vending machines also! NomNomNom!!!
I love the kings treasure boxes and another great video.
Gosh, wish we could afford Wagyu. I am drooling. Always fun to see the Surf6 boys!
Hi Eric. No ramen for a bit it was good to see it back. Meet is just amazing looking and of course sweet potato on the end :) great vid
Wagyu from a vending machine is so cool.
There's a bunch of wagyu shops that now do vending machines out front as well it's wild. A5 but also various other cuts and grades for various other things as well. It's a wonderful option for both seller and buyer m
Bucket list things to do is visitor and try out them vending machines 💪🏼💪🏼
yes the king's box is awesome ! nice eric and mega !
Had to be 6 Eric heads! Everything was wonderful ❤
I like to start my day with your videos!
And a great refillable pen. It all depends on whether you like cartridges or fancy ink that comes in many colours.
My favourite is a golden ink.
Ooohhh....beef, it's definitely what's for dinner.😂😂😂
Congratulations to the Snack Pack winners!
It's super cold and windy here in the northeast US and seeing that delicious ramen with the juicy beef just warmed me up. Going to be craving ramen all day! Get some!!
The plunger is for filling up the pen from a bottle. You pull that out entirely and replace it with the cartridge.
The meat looks AMAZING, great idea to have it with the lettuce and sauce.
I know they’re just vending machines but I’m just so jealous. Everything always seem to be really good quality and so tasty looking!
That beef looked crazy good! Great video once again.
That beef looked amazing 😊
Loved all the food, but the sweet potato dessert intrigued me! Fun to see the flashback!
Love your videos, always so fun and interesting. Always looking for new ones and I watch the old ones while waiting ♥️🥰
Thanks for your support always! ✔💯🏄
Well I love all your videos and lately I’ve been watching the adds go help you out a bit😊
All that food looked so good!! Wagyu and ramen from vending machines, food of the future!!
I am a meat lover and been wanting to try wagu. Love the vending concept. I do look forward to your videos. Awesome
Black ramen soup! Top of this episode!
Great video from the Legends, Much love from Maine USA.
Since i have been watching you i have had to start ordering Kewpie Mayonnaise, bulldog sauce, and sancho pepper. Lol. Love the content
It’s freezing where I live. I sure could use a bowl of that black ramen. 🥶 🍜
Haven’t even watched yet but this has to be 6 Eric heads. I mean it’s Wagyu
Happy New Year! For the pen could always look it up for a video or something.
I never tasted Wagyu beef, too expensive and hard to find here in Norway, but one day.
That meal looked like a real treat, vending machines in Japan is such a cool thing over there, and I love that you got the self-check-outs, speaks volumes about the trust within a community when that is achieveable.
Love the videos, keep em coming! :)
always a great video with both of you
Mighty good yummy food from a vending machine ....sweeetttttttt !
Food over there is so different and lovely looking. Wish I could get food like that here in England 😋💯👌👍💚💛❤️
With winter weather coming to Texas.... I'm going to need some of that black ramen!
Looks yummy! I like the hot coffees from George brand. I believe is what they are called. I had a fun time Japan. The food culture is amazing!
A great selection of foods today.
Treasure boxes are great, especially when they have stories.
