A Good Deal
There's not much to say about mechanical pencils but I wanted to say that this pack is a great deal. You get 24 pencils for around $7.00 and I haven't found them cheaper anywhere else. My son goes through pencils like nothing which I don't really understand but I guess that's a child for you. Although these pencils aren't necessarily made to be refilled, they are refillable. I bought cap erasers to save the eraser on the pencil so that we can take it off and put more lead in them. They still get lost at times and old, worn pencils get thrown away but the since the pack is cheap enough, we will just buy another pack when needed. Also, the metallic color is great especially for a boy because there are no 'soft' colors in the pack.

Great value and a great item to boot!
Hi All,
Not much to be said about mechanical pencils...but this is a great 24 pack. I bought it for my son who goes through these things like water... Locally I found this pack for as high as 12.99 plus tax. Amazon has it for 8 bucks, no tax, and shipping is free....it was an easy decision.
The pencils come in many colors and are built well. The erasers are good as long as they stay on there and dont get torn off.
5/5

Bic Mechanical Pencil .07 mm 10 pack (MPP101-Blk)
These are good pencils, with a few refills of lead located beneath each eraser, and they are not that expensive.

Mechanical Pencils?
May 12, 2007 by ♥.ClassicRockChick.♥ | Posted in Drawing & Illustration
What's the most popular brand of Mechanical pencils? And the best brand?
I always used plain-old Bic for doodling. They're cheap to buy and they hold up just fine.
But if you're looking into ACTUAL illustration, you really need to spend the extra money to get art pencils.

What to do with unusable lead in mechanical pencils?
Sep 21, 2008 by snoopy_rules | Posted in Drawing & Illustration
A bit of a bizarre question...
When you use mechanical pencils, its all fine and dandy until you get to the last centimeter or so of the lead? You click it so it comes out but because its too short it slips back into the tip of the pen. That's an awful lot of waste lead after a while!
Is there a way to prevent this happening, or a mechanical pencil that is designed to reduce this waste? Cheers.
A centimeter of lead is not a lot to waste! Silly, just throw it away. :) OR there is one cool thing...get a piece of printer paper, put the little lead on its side, and move it around with your finger. It looks like ribbons and you can make some crazy designs!

When did mechanical pencils first come into use?
Aug 12, 2007 by smartypants22 | Posted in Trivia
I know that regular yellow pencils have been in use for forever, but what about mechanical pencils? who thought why don't we make a pencil that's like a pen and you can put lead into it? I've been wondering this.

What pencils or more importantly pens help you if you have bad handwriting. Mechanical Pencils?
Aug 19, 2008 by Cris D | Posted in Drawing & Illustration
Well tomorrow is the first day of high school and I have about a day to buy some kind of magical pencil or pen that will help me with my bad writing. So far I have seen that Mechanical pencils help me best however I am at a loss with pens!
Use what suits you best. However, I'm very sorry to say that it's not the pencil or pen that does the trick. It's taking time and writing carefully. It's a nuisance, I know, when you just want to write and be done with it. But it's just the way it works. I can sympathize; my handwriting isn't the best, either. But I studied calligraphy, and actually made a living at it for a few years. When I take the time and am careful, I *can* write beautifully -- and in several different styles, as well! But when I'm quickly dashing off a note -- uh-oh! So I know from experience that it's not so much the writing implement as it is the hand that guides it! Good luck!
