Why not just buy the refill ink bottle?
I still have one here which is very usful to refill the pens, for other  
uses, as i havegiven up on plotting.
The bottle has a refill "port" with felt (the pens are refilled through  
the tip. To get liquid ink you need to make a hole or a syringe with  
needle.
