Born an I-6, spent the teenage, 20 and 30 years as a 302, but at 40 will reach full potential as a 351C.
Yep...this is really about mechanical pencils.
I really need to use a 5mm mechanical pencil...have for YEARS.
I have bought DOZENS of different types, and used all different kinds of leads. However, every pen I use get jacked up. The lead breaks INSIDE THE PEN and then the pencil gets jammed and I need to take it apart and blah blah blah.
Maybe I not only lack a paint gene, but maybe I lack a mechanical pencil gene.
My current instrument is a PENTEL Energize with PENTEL 2H lead. I know 5mm is a lot tricker than 7mm, but I really need the 5mm. Anyone got a good 5mm pencil/lead?
