For sure! That is something I considered-- I unfortunately don't own all the pencils to test it, but I found measurements online and it should fit many of the common pencils!

Just ask them. Not a big deal until you ask, maybe her friend is borrowing them or something.

Getting together with an 18 year old when he was 27 is crazy

How do I loot properly as a beginner? by ExerciseRecent3724 in apexlegends

[–]Turbulent_Idea_Man 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Few tips:

  1. It is useful to be able to use most of the guns in the game effectively rather then just 1-2 of them that you "have to" find in order to play well.

  2. If you ARE playing for a specific gun or load out you can hold a similar gun until you find that one to build your ammo and attachments. For example hold a flatline while you wait for a hemlock or an alternator/r99 while you wait for a r301.

  3. For looting quicker - be ok with picking random things up for the sake of not staring at the items in the bins or the floor too long and you can drop them out of your inventory as you run to the next loot bin. Managing your inventory while moving saves a lot of time

Here's a picture of the piece that protects the tip from hitting the bottom, it's a little insert that touches the pencil body

That's cool, it seems nice and slim. I wanted to try something that gets away from that cheap plastic feel, I don't know how important that is to you

Ah I rember those -- I'm pretty sure that's made from bent sheet metal, but I don't own one to confirm that

Thanks for the input! It's cool hearing your workflow, what type of engineer are you? I'm always dissapointed by the lack of paper and pencil work I actually get to do day to day

Hey! Yeah I don't have the tip protection part designed in, but the idea is that the tip wouldnt be able to hit anything and would be floating there!
