    HELP with SIERRA PENCIL KIT

    I have purchased 4 SIERRA PENCIL KITS from Penkits UK. Just turned one and I am not happy with it or I am doing something wrong on assembling. When you eventually get the lead out you cannot turn it back. How and where do you store spare leads. Anyone had experience of these pens. Glen:sob::sob:

    I did these for a customer as a special request - she wanted a matching rollerball and pencil with a matt black finish as an anniversary present for her husband.

    Sketch Pencil with Burr Oak

    I made a PSI sketch pencil for my Granddaughter to take to her new school for art lessons. I was surprised that you have to CA the plunger in, which makes it difficult or near impossible to strip the pen down again. Peter

    Pencil Dandelion Mesh

    This is the new Mechanical Pencil kit from PSI. The blank is called Dandelion Mesh from Exotic Blanks. The blank is a little plain, but I like the color combination with the pencil kit.

    First posting in ages; an oak pencil with walnut Celtic cross

    Not posted in ages but so much inspiration on this site I thought I'd post one again. I made this pen as a retirement present for someone who liked propelling pencils but used only disposables. A summary of the steps taken with photos is also attached. Any comments and improvement tips welcomed.
