Oh, and in case I really like the rollerball with Noodler's Ink, is there a better quality Rollerball pen that uses refillable Fountain Pen ink? I really wish there was an insert that would work with my Lamy Swift. One of my favorite pens.
I've never heard of anything like that. I imagine there might be an issue with sealing the ink while still allowing air to enter the chamber. Who knows though, maybe someone makes them (I searched out of curiosity and couldn't find anything right away). You could always purchase a basic fountain pen with a converter. That's what I always did until today.
On a side note:
Just out of curiosity, what size is most of your handwriting?
I just measured mine out of curiosity and most lowercase letters come out between 1 and 1.5 mm tall. I used to try to write smaller than the computer on the printouts I was given in grade school, and I guess the smallness stuck with me.

Pretty large, actually. Between 4-5mm tall at least.
But I type a lot more than I write. I draw a lot more than I write, so that's why I have liked rollerballs a lot more than fountain pens.
I had a Fisher space Pen in highschool quite like this I loved it nice weight and wrote well I lost it which was fitting since I found it on the ground in the first place.

Inz, you do indeed have small handwriting! My lowercase letters are at least 2mm taller than yours. It depends on the nib/tip and ink though. I tend to write much smaller with fine tipped/nibbed pens.
Man, I think if you buy expensive pens, the best thing to do is to write in script or that script+print combo. Every time I see that, I feel the urge to run out and buy a pen, until I see the prices.
This thread has gotten me into fine writing instruments. I used to have a Cross BP & Pencil and a cheap Sheaffer FP(I think).
