One paper, measured

We buy a single paper and use it in everything: 120 gsm, acid free, lightly sized so a wet nib sits on the surface instead of bleeding through. The grid is printed at 12% grey so it disappears under pencil.

The grid is light enough that a plan drawn over it still reads. I have stopped buying anything else for site notes.

The pen was repaired for the cost of the nib, two years after I bought it. That is the whole reason I came back.
