Things you will need-
1.Any bottle according to your preference
2. Bottle cap
3. Felt (I have used common dish scrub here)
4. NT cutter knife
First cut out 3 strips of felt somewhat similarly like this, the width will depend on how wide you want your nib to be.
Arrange the cut pieces like this. This will be the nib of the marker. You can make it thicker by increasing the number of folds. You can even put a stiff material like bits of pvc in between the folds to make it more sturdy.
Now cut a hole in the bottlecap to fit the nib. The hole should be a bit smaller that the cross sectional area of the nib to ensure a tight fight.
Insert the nib through the hole. Make sure the fit is snug. Adjust till you have a nib length that you like.
Insertion complete.
Fill the bottle with ink of your choice and slip on the cap.
We are finished! Below is a video of the marker.
As you can see, I made the ink a little too thin, to get the best output, make sure the ink is a little thick and has a honey like consistency. From my experience, acramin colors mixed with a little bit of water works great!

Bonus tips:
Bonus tips:
1. Dont use mediums or glue mixed with the ink
2. Carry an extra normal bottle cap. When you're not using the market, seal it with the normal cap. When you have to use it, use the cap with the nib.
