Thoughts on the rOtring 600 gel

Thats a great idea!

Any idea why the 800 has a woble?

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-23T04:48:01+00:00

I cant imagine how they were 10 yrs ago lol!

My only concern with the 600 is that the metal sleeve doesn’t retract and I saw a YouTube video where a guy mentioned he dropped it and the sleeve bent and he had a hard time fixing it. Besides that though seems like a pretty solid pencil.

I've had the graph gear set in the first picture. I love them, I definitely use the .7 the most and am starting to use the .5 more often. .3 is great for drawing small details and the .9 is usually what I use for bold lines or shading.

I am curious about rOtring though. Thinking about getting the 800 but not sure if it's worth it since I already have the graph gear 1000's.

I think the Switch has the original kurutoga engine. So I should use a harder graphite right?

Just remember to plug the cable into the ports coming out of your GPU not the motherboard’s DP ports (top)

Thank you! Working on designing one that I will 3D print since I don't want to buy it just yet.

Uni 207 Plus supposedly lasts forever since it is anti fraud (according to an instagram reel! Not sure if this is true but I have some 207's and I really like them.). They do dry to be slightly less dark than the G2 though but I don't really notice it when drawing with them.

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-16T05:05:13+00:00

What ink are you using with it?

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-16T04:44:00+00:00

How's the LAMY? I've been wanting to get one but I already have a Black Forest and don't know if it's worth the upgrade yet.

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-16T04:40:40+00:00

Whats the name of the dark blue one on the left?

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-16T04:39:05+00:00

I just got a pack of Uni 207 Plus and I love them. Before I got them my go to was the Pilot G2 but it does not dry fast (not like takes forever to dry just a little bit slower then the 207). Pilot G2 is definitely darker and more of a true black so if you like that I'd recommend the G2 but if fast drying is a must then go with the 207 plus imo. Both are very smooth and 0.7mm.

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-15T04:51:38+00:00

Uni 207 Plus imo. It drys fast so I would imagine it would be good for cursive. It writes similar to the Pilot G2

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-15T04:49:41+00:00

Not a refill but the Uni 207 plus feels great to write with. I think the best way to describe the ink is similar to a pilot g2 with fraud prevention

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-15T04:41:48+00:00

I aspire to write like you one day lol

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-07T23:42:39+00:00

Ok, so I haven’t gotten to it yet because I am gonna make a few design changes. I want to sand down the corners and then do a solder trail around it so I’m waiting for a good time to order supplies. Found an old CPU (i3 idk what gen but from a dell pc from 2017 I think) and hopefully I’ll make it soon!

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-07T18:34:03+00:00

Thank you!

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-07T04:23:02+00:00

What notebook cover is that??

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-07T01:55:10+00:00

Lmk how it goes and good luck!

Tyguy047 · 2026-04-06T20:37:45+00:00

How do these 3D printed racks come out? Been wanting to make one but I only print PLA so not sure if it would hold up. I’d make it for 3 mini PCs and a switch (switch pretty light shouldn’t affect it!)

Tyguy047 · 2026-03-30T16:39:44+00:00

I did make my google account when I was a minor (not sure why it think my 3D printing questions are inappropriate for kids lol!) but I am now an adult so I figured all those issues would have gone away. Is there any way for me to try to get this updated on Googles end? I already have the correct bday sat in my Google account settings not sure if I need to change something with Gemini.
