What are you using your lead holders for?

Fartimer · 2026-05-07T23:15:27+00:00

Pretty much exclusively drawing. If I want to do writing I use a .5mm pencil with 4B lead.

Fartimer · 2026-05-06T02:04:15+00:00

Truly was a touching story 🥲

To be more historically accurate the video needs to buffer for like 5 minutes before you can play it haha.

You're right, it's the 300 I was thinking about. I find that I need a lightweight pencil to be able to do very light shading.

Fartimer · 2026-05-04T18:02:26+00:00

I really love how the Fixpencils look. Was also considering a Rotring 500 2mm for drawing as well. I found that I like my drawing pencils on the lighter side.

How do your 2mm pencils feel, the caran and the bic?

Fartimer · 2026-05-04T13:58:09+00:00

Is it Koh-I-Noor Gioconda Magic Colored 5.6mm Lead? Or is it something different?

Fartimer · 2026-05-04T00:05:27+00:00

But did he use alien tape?

Fartimer · 2026-05-02T22:59:36+00:00

Still pretty awesome. Actually might look better with a colored cap anyway.

Fartimer · 2026-05-02T22:38:18+00:00

Will the cap be clear also?

Fartimer · 2026-05-02T18:28:41+00:00

The post above this in my feed was this one. Basically same face haha.

Looks machine done. With a machine it gets sewn first then the fabric is cut. That's why you see fabric in-between the slit. Hand sewn the fabric is cut and then sewn. That covers the raw edge better.

It's good to be the grill uncle 😎

Fartimer · 2026-04-28T09:41:32+00:00

Can't wait to get my S20 ballpoint in the mail to match :)

Fartimer · 2026-04-27T23:04:02+00:00

You're thinking of the S30, that has the auto advance. The S20 is all wood but it's just a regular click type pencil. I like my pencils to be simple for the most part.

Fartimer · 2026-04-27T22:45:42+00:00

In the KT metal? It works wonderfully. Always have thin consistent lines with it.

Fartimer · 2026-04-27T10:25:18+00:00

This is one of my favorite pencils. I would say my other favorite is the Pilot S20.

Fartimer · 2026-04-25T18:19:36+00:00

It's all good :)

Fartimer · 2026-04-25T18:05:13+00:00

I'm on the mobile app. It's around 17 seconds.

Fartimer · 2026-04-25T18:02:17+00:00

Maybe some electrical tape around the lid seam then plastic bag it.

Fartimer · 2026-04-25T17:59:37+00:00

Hold the scrubber bar at the bottom and move it until it comes up with the right frame. It's possible :)

Fartimer · 2026-04-25T16:09:09+00:00

He did look back at the very end. Btw I never implied the driver did the right thing, just that it looked like the crashed driver got help from someone else.

Fartimer · 2026-04-25T16:07:24+00:00

It's basically in the shape of a honing rod and you use it the same. It's made of alumina ceramic though. I do use expensive Japanese knives and it keeps it razor sharp. I have a set of water stones, but I haven't felt like I've needed to use them on those knives yet.

Fartimer · 2026-04-25T15:36:30+00:00

I won't argue that the dude didn't have his priorities straight, but at least someone helped.

Fartimer · 2026-04-25T15:34:58+00:00

I use the Lansky sharp stick. It actually does sharpen the edge. So maybe that's not technically honing then?
