Page of current tools I am using to do things. i did an EDC post for my drawing tools at the time. I like the idea of a more permanent page that can just be updated as my preferences change.

Daily Writing & Notes
These are my daily tools for traveling, jotting notes when I’m out and about, to-do lists, planning or journaling

- Travellers Notebook – Black passport size – daily carry for making notes, random sketches, books/tv/bands i want to look up. I’ve had this for about 15 years and it’s got a nice patina from use. I have two field notes memo books inside that I cycle as they fill up – but have used 3.5 x 5″ memo books from lot’s of different places in here over the years.
- Lochby Venture Pouch – “Bumblebee” – this is my current pack for carrying various pens for travel.
- Leuchtterm 1917 Notebook – Dotted, Olive – my go to for rambling, tracking, planning, whingeing.
- Double Pen Quiver – holds two pens or one hefty pen like the Karimoku. Keeps it all together.
- Uni Jetstream X Karimoku, 4&1 – Orange/Oak – superb pen for all of the above. Hefty and feels good in my hand. I like the multi color pens for various purposes, the Karimoku also has a mechanical pencil. been using this one for a couple years.
- Pilot NEOX 2B graphite refills – great lead, erases easily. 2B is my go-to for all uses – not too hard, not too soft….
