Pentel Pencil

[Don Halvorsen]

I saw in a photo what looked like a Pentel 0.5 mm pencil ... you know - the blue ones - but it was wood. I have never seen a kit like this. How would one make one of these?

You need (not really but it makes it easier) a step drill and a mandrel both of which are sold in the classified. There is an awesome article in the library as well.

Don,
Try this library article for the general idea of how to do it.

Get the step drill bit and step mandrel from rherell and go to town. It's an amazingly fun and easy pencil to turn. I've done them in wood, resin, and now aluminum.
