Hi there,

I thought that I'd read something on this topic a while ago, but maybe it wasn't here (as I've just spent some time searching to no avail).

I'm playing around with a routine where i false write one prediction with red Sharpie pen (in reality I want to write something else in a black ink, but from a 'Red Sharpie pen').

It started out as Jay Sankey's Graffiti, but I'm developing it further. Has anyone got any tips about how I can change the ink between Sharpies? I'm guessing I just pull out the end bit, and swap the middle tube holding the ink - maybe soaking off the excess from the nib in tissues?

I've only got a couple of coloured Sharpies on me at the moment, and thought'd I find out if there was a simple way, or any tips for not getting the house or myself covered in ink, and before I destroy the pens and have to go back to the shops!

Cheers,

BTW - I recenlty bought a 4 pack of ASDA's own black 'sharpies' for 89p. I was a bit dubious about them, but thought I'd give them a go. They are fine, and great for practicing home or even performing with!

Could you just put a red top on a black pen?

I guess I could, but the lower plastic part of the Sharpie is also coloured - which would help sell it I think - but you are right, I could just do that. Unless people have seen colourred sharpies, they probably wouldn't know.

Simple solutions, usually the best way to go!

FYI - I'm part of the loop.
"loop" of course, not a "stack"

you take the cap off, and put it on the other end... Its a natural thing to do.
This covers up the odd coloured bit.
