My version of a Pentel pencil

[stuckinohio]

Here is my version of a Pentel pencil. I'm happy with it. The shape is very comfortable. The section is thicker and I like the fountain pen esque shape of it.

The material is Omas from The Turners Workshop.

Oh, and as usual the pictures are terrible....

One of the more difficult parts of making those is getting the clip on. Nice pencil!

For sure! The clip was the worst part.

Thank you. Very easy project.

They are called Pentel pencils commonly available.

I used this article as a reference. I left out the largest drill bit and tube and turned down between centers then collet chuck.

I particularly like the shape at the nib. Makes forcomfortable holding. Nice job!

Thank you!

I'm growing very fond of it. I've got one more to make for a very good customer. It will be made from blue/teal Conway Stewart material and will be really beautiful.

Then I have to make one for my best customer, my wife....!
