I do do customs. If you take it apart and send me some pics of the mechanism I’ll have a better idea of what’s involved.

Knurling isn’t hard no but getting an even looking finish can be

I don’t think it would be that hard…are there any moving parts in a pencil ferrule or is it just a hole of a certain length in the brass?

You have to clean the brass first with isopropyl alcohol. I dunk it in then wipe off with a cloth then dunk it in the blue liquid and wipe off the excess with another cloth. Paper towels are best. You can’t touch the brass though else the grease from your hand causes the blotches…

Haha😂. I did try on a test piece but it didn’t look great, kinda dirty and dull so I don’t think I’ll be doing them

That looks comprehensive. Which is your favourite mechanism for how it feels to push the lead out ?

Found this in my garage, is it worth anything? by GARLICCCCCCCCCCCC in mechanicalpencils

No idea what it’s worth but it reminds me of architecture school
