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.

Mechanical Pencils?

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?

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?

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.


1822 - a pair of british guys.

What pencils or more importantly pens help you if you have bad handwriting. Mechanical Pencils?

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!

Where online can I buy cute/customized mechanical pencils?

I'd like to know if there were any websites that made any customized mechanical pencils, or just ones that look cute/cool. Know of any??
Oh and it would be best if I didn't have to buy them in bulk.


maybe u can just to to normal grocery stores and go to the school supllies area and find some there??

With O’Brien departing, the mixed sense in the bustle is that Leno can resurface to primacy at 11:35. But the injury to NBC’s prime-continuously schedule will be far harder to repair. Perhaps in hopes of improving frayed relationships with the imaginative community, which had been distressed to see hours of formerly scripted programming turned over to Leno, NBC has announced that it has made deals for shows from such prodigal-end and high-priced producers as Jerry Bruckheimer and J.J. Abrams.

“Affluent after all these big names is a prescription for disaster as well as a economic nightmare,” said an Mr Big at a rival network, longhand on his blog. He predicted that the next big hit “will not contract from the usual suspects.”

Launching maker-new shows at 10 p.m. is uniquely challenging in the DVR smashing, said another Mr Big at a competing network. And the mar at NBC affects more than that certain timeslot, he added. “NBC is a shot of what it used to be,” he said. “It reach-me-down to be that they could get people to that ‘very esteemed ER ’ or Frasier . They were unabashed and they shilled it and it worked. I don’t characterize as they have that anymore.”

Both of these executives scoffed at NBC Prevailing Television Performance CEO Jeff Gaspin’s general idea that the network could use the upcoming Olympics to glare up its tarnished label. “The Olympics has never been cast-off to launch anything,” one said.

Stabilo ‘s move easyergo Mechanical Pencil Review

Stabilo ‘s move easyergo Mechanical Pencil Cavalcade

I first saw the ‘s move easyergo over on Lexikaliker about a year ago. Some months ago it started appearing in a few shops that I visited, and a few weeks ago I completely succumbed to PAS and purchased one along with a pack of replacement leads. Let’s get something explicit here at the beginning. This review is very different to my normal reviews. It is a pencil designed for innocent children so my suitability as a reviewer is very questionable. No matter how offhand or long a time I used this pencil for, I am simply not the intended narcotic addict and thus my opinions are of even less value than normal. Unfortunately my close one's nearest does not include any youngsters within the target demographic so I couldn’t d it on for a second opinion.The ‘s move easyergo comes in four contrastive versions – left and right hands, and morose or pink. Since I am right handed and a boy, I purchased a blue strategic hand model.Lets grab hold of the pencil. It’s light-headed. Lighter than I expected for a relatively wide bodied pencil. That’s in all likelihood good for children. ...
