This unique pencil kit is equally at home in the shop or an artist's sketch kit. The single tube kit is extremely easy to turn and produces an attractive, different, and very functional pencil. The extra thick (5.66mm, about 7/32" D x 3-1/8" L) HB round lead resists breaking and is held firmly in place by a four-jaw collet at the bottom of the pencil mechanism. Just push on the spring-loaded top of the pencil and the collet opens so you can advance or retract the lead to the desired length. The top, when unscrewed from the pencil, features an internal sharpener to renew the point. When combined with the 4B soft lead, any artist would love to add this pencil to their sketch kit. Requires a 5/8" x 5/8" x 3-1/2" blank, pen mandrel, 15/32" bit and artist's pencil bushings, all sold separately. Standard gold finish.
