Actual first any kind of pencil. I don't use mechanical pencils so generally don't make them.
There's another view of this in the "scanned" section of my photo gallery, if your interested.
The pencil is off a slimline kit made to go with the pen I sold her. She actually wanted two pencils but making these assymetrical blanks is tough and turning beads with two woods so different in hardness is no joy either.
The other one is finished but wasn't a clean and didn't want to shine so I tried using the Bealle buffing system on it and shot it across the shop. Of course it hit on the PINE.
Not much to say about this one except it shines and it works but thought I'd put it up anyway.
P.S. The pen IS straight is a visual trick of the lines that make it appear bent - even in person![:I]
