I use to use it in my scrapbooking, but I had the We r Memory Keepers Quickstick, but it was the same thing, I still have mine and am using it now

I've been using a pick me up pen for a long time. When I refill,I just stick it in the wax. Just like a drill pen. I can usually do a whole painting,(sometimes 2),before refilling. It's the only pen I use for drilling. I recommend it.

@Avinmor 5 лет назад

I actually took the sticky tac out of the my new pen and put in wax. I like the wax better. It's perfect for diamond painting. I'm happy to see that you got one. I convinced my sister to get one. Happy painting! And many blessings your way.

hi rose, i love my pick-me up pen, there is a utuber called alison i think her name was, she removed the nib from a pink pen & put it in the pick-me up pen, it works a treat, the white gloop and wax will go tho the little hole. i use mine with nib. also the tool on the end will come out & another tool on the other end for you to use. x

I just re-watched that video, and have customized my Pick-Me-Up pen. For anyone else who wants to see it, here's the link to Alison's video - the tip for customizing the pen is about 21 1/2 minutes in: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-3xllxLdNmwk.html

@kcfield601 2 года назад

I just want the tool end, lol. I use glue dots such a game changer for me over pink wax and blue tac.

@queenbathmorda8658 5 лет назад

The back end of the pen comes out and has a point. So you can switch it back and forth. I also remove the glop of goop with my finger nail. You really only need the tiniest part and it can be flush with the end. I did a 60x60 pic without twisting it to get more goop to come out. If you keep it flush with the tip it does not leave residue on the beads and you are free to push the drills as hard as you want to move them around without leaving a blob on the drill. I also find it more comfortable to not have the tool sticking out the end because it changes the balance of the pen in my hand. But that's just me:-)

@trishroberts4487 4 года назад

I didn't like that putty at all so I picked, prodded and pushed until I got the putty out and filled it with the pink glue. I filled my painting with 79 diamonds before I ran out of the letter A, so I'm still going. I like it much better than the putty.

@arlenelewis1908 5 лет назад

I love the pen though it took me a half hour to get the cap off. LOL. Saddest thing is they cannot be refilled with the same sticky. Spot the craft is one of my favorite sellers on ebay. Great prices and shipping rates. So sad she is sold out of pens. I modified the pen as Doni did to better control placement.

@marilynmay8375 3 года назад

I bought this to use for the special drills. I haven't received it yet, but I'm hoping it will work.

@RamblingRoseandDiamondPainting 3 года назад

I'm pretty sure you will like the way it works for special drills. You can also use it for normal drills. If you do, you will want to add a brass tips from a drill pen to it. I have a video on how to do that. The tip shouldn't be added for special drills.

@lindagarcia8901 5 лет назад

Try putting the metal tip from your diamond drill pen into your pick up in it works beautiful. Pull out the other and it has two tools

@RamblingRoseandDiamondPainting 5 лет назад

Wow! so it does! That sharp pointy awl could cause serious damage!!!

@RamblingRoseandDiamondPainting 5 лет назад

I have put the metal tip on, and I like the pick-me-up pen so much better now! Thank you!

@RamblingRoseandDiamondPainting 5 лет назад

Thank you for a brilliant suggestion, Linda! it is so much better with the tip!

@trishroberts4487 4 года назад

@@RamblingRoseandDiamondPainting I don't understand what you're saying. How do you do it? I keep taking my "pick me up" apart trying to figure it out and I'm just lost.

@RamblingRoseandDiamondPainting 4 года назад

@@trishroberts4487 , you pull just the brass metal tip out of a regular pink drill pen (not the clear plastic part the brass tip fits in, just the brass tip itself. Then, hold the brass tip with some needle nose pliers against a hard surface like a ceramic tile, and press the end of the pick-me-up pen against it so the tip l gets jammed into the pen. You have to press really hard, so make sure the brass tip is on something that won't scratch if it slips. Be careful, because you don't want to break the plastic tip of the pick-me-up pen. Let me know if this isn't clear, and I can record a video "how to" sometime. ❤️😘

@CubNan 5 лет назад

Michael’s and Joann’s carry them. Like the pen, just not the threading that’s exposed before using up the goop.

@RamblingRoseandDiamondPainting 5 лет назад

I agree about the threading. I wonder if I'm doing something wrong, because it doesn't seem like the threads should be exposed like that - the tip gets loose and almost falls off as I use the pen. 🤔.

@CubNan 5 лет назад

Rambling Rose and Diamond Painting you’re not doing anything wrong. When you advance the putty, the threading area gets smaller. Is there someway I can send you a picture?

@RamblingRoseandDiamondPainting 5 лет назад

Hi Nan! You can send a photo to RamblingRoseDP@gmail.com. Thanks!

Pic me up pen has 2 pics on bottom pull bottom plastic piece out it has 2 ends one very pointy one kinda square.

@marlenemednansky7503 4 года назад

Have you found anything like this that works better on square drills?

@RamblingRoseandDiamondPainting 4 года назад

I use my drill pens with regular tips, or my pens from We Have a Handle on This for square drills. They all work about the same - it's a matter of preference for how they feel in the hand.

@marlenemednansky7503 4 года назад

I just ordered the Quickstik, it was what was in your comments below, just spelled differently. The other one mentioned is out of stock. I also saw inserting a pink one's drill to into the pick me up's end. I haven't tried it yet. So far using a straightener is working on the square drills. One thing I've noticed is when it's running low on the putty it'll get a little wobbly, just turn the head about a quarter turn and it's just enough to keep right on going. I also found the checker board is harder with the pick me up. For me, pushing up and to the left has been the best way to align the square drills. I haven't tried it on a round yet. This is a great tool! I'm very glad I bought it. Thank you for your suggestions.

@aysheahiguera8598 3 года назад

Hi 👋 Rose 🌹 can you refill after all the contents of the pen has run out

@RamblingRoseandDiamondPainting 3 года назад

Yes you can. I would suggest using pink wax as a refill. I've used white tack (Aleene's) and blue tack, and found they are too thick. They also have some sort of chemical reaction with the brass tips I stick in the end of the pen, which turns the tack black, so if some gets on the canvas, it's hard to get it off *and* it shows up. If you want to see the video where I demonstrate how to put a brass tips in, just search my channel for "Pick Me Up Pen". Let me know if you want a video on how to refill the pen.

Do you have to buy a refill for this pen

@RamblingRoseandDiamondPainting 5 лет назад

There are no refills, but the pen has lasted me a long time and is nowhere near empty. Some people refill theirs with pink wax, but I will just be buying new pens when mine run out.

They are definitely not for everyone. However, after adding the drill pen tip to mine, I absolutely love it!

Hi Linda, I jammed the tip in using Alison Rosen’s technique. I linked her video modifying the pen in the video description above.

@vivscrafts4006 5 лет назад

I love my pick me up pen. Have been using it since I got mine. Helps me drill faster. I just pull out the excess goop before using it and just minutely turn it so I down waste the goop. If you pull out the tool at the other end, there's another tip
