A few end of year notes – after four months of the blog being at www.penciltalk.org, redirection from pencils.smoky.ca will be turned off. Please update any old bookmarks or links that you might have. Though it wasn’t planned, pencil talk seems to have taken a brief winter break. While I thought the letter pencil grades (”HB”, etc.) were standard, I came across this lament about the end of the barely known EE grade. Using pencils for writing, note taking, flowcharts, and diagrams, I’ve rarely explored their softest grades, those beyond 4B. The Ampad Engineer’s Computation Pad is a specialty pad of paper. Light green with green ruling, the front side of the page has only a margin. The back of the page has a 100 by 700 grid, with each square measuring 1/5″ x 1/5″. The inch lines (every fifth line) are slightly darker. The Castell 9000 is a famous and iconic pencil. A flagship product of Faber-Castell, the world’s largest pencil company, the 9000 has over a century of history as an important working tool of writers, artists and engineers. |
