The first time I tried writing with the pieces of rope, I used acrylic paint. I noticed that I had to constantly dip the rope back into the paint to be able to write with it. That is why I now want to see if this works better with ink. I believe the rope will absorb the ink better, making it easier to write.

First, I cut two pieces of rope. Next, I used a lighter to heat one end to create a hard tip, and I made the end of the other piece of rope fuzzy. After this, I dipped the ends into the ink I had purchased and was able to write with them.

I immediately noticed that the rope absorbed the ink much better than the paint. After dipping the rope into the ink, I could actually write with it. This was almost impossible when using the paint. I did notice, however, that because the rope absorbed the ink so well, it turned completely black, which resulted in my hands getting quite dirty. This is something I would like to prevent if I continue with this.

I wonder how many different variations you can make with the ends of the rope to achieve different results.

I think writing with rope is a good idea to pursue further. I do want to see if I can make some kind of casing around the rope so it is easier to hold, and your hands don't get dirty when the rope absorbs the ink.

I am going to search online for how I can design a casing in 3D and subsequently print it.
