Pencil tips for your enjoyment (the 11 pencil commandments): Don't drop a pencil (once dropped, it's over for the pencil - the core totally disintegrates), rotate the pencil to keep the point sharp longer, use a pencil sharpener with an integral box to keep the cuttings so you don't have to run to a bin, use a pencil extender to use even the last centimeter of the pencil, If you don't like the thinness of the pencils, try a slip-on pencil grip, don't use pencil with an integrated eraser, buy high quality erasers so that you don't run out of it - they alsoerase better (that one is also a point of taste) try pencils in the H numbers for longivity and point retention (had one of them for 2 years), be vary of lead on your hands and of imprints if you turn a written page over, if you want to scan/take a photo of pencil drawings/writings, don't use your phone light and only use indirect light sources (otherwise, the writings vanish in the photo), carry at least two thicknesses of pencil - normal (HB) and softer one for underlining/headlines or as back-up - it's also useful for drawing, buy pencils in bulk - I've found boxes of 50 for under 15€ - that's one of the most economic writing options out there.

@@Rithmy ,I have nothing against mechanical pencils. They are convenient. No mess when you toss them in a book or bag. And yes less wasteful. I use pencils all day, everyday. A short synopsis of my past and why I prefer original pencils...I grew up knowing artists (clothing and paper) , engineers, etc and still love the scratchy sound of a thicker pencil. And of course the mechanical pencil didnt exist yet when I was a kid. And fast forward, again short version..my hands do not behave like they should...they are not user friendly...even making a comment/email/text challenging and delayed. So, when I drop mechanical pencils, they break. No matter how strong the pencil material, (Ive tried thicker plastic and metal shell), things break.. The (to me) delicate lead breaks, even within the pencil. The top/eraser part breaks loose and wont stay on. Of course leading to extra lead falling out. And so on. Tip warps/breaks not holding lead Etc. As I write with mechanical, I break the lead. I break the lead on regular pencils if its too long or sharp. I quit trying to even load lead in mechanical about 15yrs ago lol. Quite a show that was 😂 Also, when mechanical pencils fall and bits fall off, I can't always find pieces before my dogs do..lol. Thats a concern for me. A regular pencil just needs sharpened again, and good to go. I have not given up. I recently discovered I am able to write with the bigger starter pencils and not break lead. Papermate "handwriting " designed for kids mechanical pencils. But I broke my granddaughters favorite color one when I dropped it. Not a happy 6year old. Odd? public school policies.. I have nieces and nephews in public Jr High and High Schools. A few years ago, many schools adapted a policy of "no mechanical pencils ". They were deemed as hazardous and potential weapons. To me, regular pencils are no less dangerous. During tests it would seem less irritating to hear a click click over a pencil sharpener, but thats just me. They are also only allowed the basic standard yellow pencil. My granddaughters and nieces school districts have adapted the "Only mechanical pencils. And solid colors only." No pattern/design as its distracting. The Jr high and high school should focus more on the dress code in my opinion.

A pencil is a kind of writing equipment that is also used to draw, usually on paper. Most pencil cores are made of graphite powder mixed with a clay binder. So, a pencil is usually made with a piece of graphite mixed with clay that has a wood case around it. The shape is usually a hexagonal prism but some pencils are square or cylinder. Colored pencils are a kind that do not use greyish silver graphite. Instead, the core is colorful. Colored pencils or crayons are usually meant for drawing rather than writing. The important difference between pens and pencils is that the tip of a pencil is made of solid graphite (or other material) which is rubbed off onto the paper. A pen has a tip, usually made of metal, with liquid ink coming out and onto the paper. Writing with a pen can smudge when it is still wet. Writing from a pencil can be erased, but writing from a pen usually cannot, unless it uses a special type of ink and eraser. An early writing tool was the reed pen used by ancient Egyptians, who wrote with ink on sheets of papyrus paper. Another early writing instrument was the stylus, which was a thin metal stick, often made from lead. It was used for scratching onto black wax that covered white wood, a method used by the Romans. The word pencil comes from the Latin word pencillus which means "little tail". It is an invention of the 16th century in England. Some time before 1565 (it may have been as early as 1500), an enormous deposit of graphite was discovered in Borrowdale, Cumbria. The locals found that it was very useful for marking sheep. This particular deposit of graphite was extremely pure and solid, and it could easily be sawn into sticks. This is still the only large scale deposit of graphite ever found in this solid form. Chemistry was in its infancy and the substance was thought to be a form of lead. Consequently, it was called plumbago (Latin for "lead ore"). The black core of pencils is still referred to as lead, even though it never contained the element lead. The value of graphite was soon realized, mainly because it could be used to line the moulds for cannonballs. The mines were taken over by the Crown and guarded. When sufficient stocks of graphite had been accumulated, the mines were flooded to prevent theft until more was required. Graphite had to be smuggled out for use in pencils. Because graphite is soft, it requires some form of holder. Graphite sticks were at first wrapped in string or in sheepskin for stability. The news of the usefulness of these early pencils spread far and wide, attracting the attention of artists all over the known world. England continued to have a monopoly on the production of pencils until a method of reconstituting the graphite powder was found. The distinctively square English pencils continued to be made with sticks cut from natural graphite into the 1860s. The town of Keswick, near the original findings of block graphite, has a pencil museum. The first attempt to manufacture graphite sticks from powdered graphite was in Nuremburg, Germany, in 1662. It used a mixture of graphite, sulphur, and antimony. Residual graphite from a pencil stick is not poisonous, and graphite is harmless if consumed. The Italians first thought of wooden holders. In 1560, an Italian couple named Simonio and Lyndiana Bernacotti created the first blueprints for the modern carpentry pencil to mark their carpentry pieces. Their version was instead a flat, oval, more compact type of pencil. They did this at first by hollowing out a stick of juniper wood. Shortly thereafter, a superior technique was discovered: two wooden halves were carved, a graphite stick inserted, and the two halves then glued together-essentially the same method in use to this day. English and German pencils were not available to the French during the Napoleonic Wars. France was under naval blockade imposed by Great Britain and could not import the pure graphite sticks from the British Grey Knotts mines - the only known source in the world for solid graphite. France was also unable to import the inferior German graphite pencil substitute. It took the efforts of an officer in Napoleon's army to change this. In 1795, NicholasJacques Conté discovered a method of mixing powdered graphite with clay and forming the mixture into rods that were then fired in a kiln. By varying the ratio of graphite to clay, the hardness of the graphite rod could also be varied. This method of manufacture, which had been earlier discovered by the Austrian Joseph Hardtmuth of Kohl-l-Noh in 1790, remains in use. In England, pencils continued to be made from whole sawn graphite. Henry Bessemer's first successful invention (1838) was a method of compressing graphite powder into solid graphite thus allowing the waste from sawing to be reused American colonists imported pencils from Europe until after the American Revolution. Benjamin Franklin advertised pencils for sale in his Pennsylvania Gazette in 1729, and George Washington used a three-inch pencil when he surveyed the Ohio Territory in 1762. It is said that William Munroe, a cabinetmaker in Concord, Massachusetts made the first American wood pencils in 1812. This was not the only pencil-making occurring in Concord. Henry David Thoreau discovered how to make a good pencil out of inferior graphite using clay as the binder; this invention was prompted by his father's pencil factory in Concord, which employed graphite found in New Hampshire in 1821 by Charles Dunbar On 30 March 1858, Hymen Lipman received the first patent for attaching an eraser to the end of a pencil. In 1862 Lipman sold his patent to Joseph Reckendorfer for $100,000, who went to sue the pencil manufacturer Faber-Castell for infringement. In 1875 the Supreme Court of the United States ruled against Reckendorfer declaring the patent invalid. The metal band used to mate the eraser with pencil is called a ferrule. The first attempt to manufacture graphite sticks from powdered graphite was in Nuremberg, Germany in 1662. They used a mixture of graphite, sulfur and antimony. Though usable, they were not as good as the English pencils. English and German pencils were not available to the French during the Napoleonic wars. It took the efforts of an officer in Napoleon's army to change this. In 1795 Nicholas Jacques Conté discovered a method of mixing powdered graphite with clay and forming the mixture into rods which were then fired in a kiln. By varying the ratio of graphite to clay, the hardness of the graphite rod could also be varied (the more clay, the harder the pencil, and the lighter the color of the mark). This method of making pencils is still used today. Today, pencils are made industrially by mixing finely ground graphite and clay powders, adding water, forming long spaghetti-like strings, and firing them in a kiln. The resulting strings are dipped in oil or molten wax which seeps into the tiny holes of the material, resulting in smoother writing. A juniper or incense-cedar plank with several long parallel grooves is cut to make something called a slate, and the graphite/clay strings are inserted into the grooves. Another grooved plank is glued on top, and the whole thing is then cut into individual pencils, which are then varnished or painted. A few common brands of colored pencils (among other items) are Crayola, RoseArt and Cra-Z-Art.

Mechanical pencils are better. The standard pencil can leave a mark of graphite on your finger tips and if you leave a pencil in a pencil case it makes everything else (especially the rubber) “dirty”. • A mechanical pencil would only expose the amount of graphite needed for a certain time period of writing • Arguably, the Pilot Frixion Erasable pen is perfect-er. It is a pen with the added luxuries of a pencil (rubbing out) and you can put a cap on it when not in use. *+* for convenience, there is a tip on the lid to attach the pen to e.g. ur shirt pocket
