Writing With Lead?

I use the Stat Blue lead holder daily. Its my pocket pencil. The grind shaper on the back and the price was a big + I dont have to go back to the bench to reshape my lead.

Lol, your gonna think im full of s**t. But grandad had a box of these in the barn also.. 😂😂 (red carpenter style) Turns out lead is great for marking Al. He worked in a machine shop for 30 years. He collected some wild!! stuff. Big part of why I chose metal working as a career also. I miss him greatly.

Aaah, so that's why Clive uses lead solder so much - he's writing his memoirs...

I've often wondered about the shape of those pencils, especially as a kid hanging out with my Dad while he worked. Thanks for the nice, informative video. 😃
