Mine broke off too! >_< Hey are the tips interchangeable from the s20 to the s10? Mine broke off too! >_<

Thanks for sharing this idea. I wouldn't mind doing that myself. And possibly, just might! (Plus you answered Charlie's question, above.) ccw, what a great idea!

Normally like thicker grip but this one somehow feels great. Since I use 0.9 and 0.7 only, I combined S20 body with S10 parts to come up with 0.9 version of S20 (other than added cost, very easy to do; made 3 of them). All parts (nib, inner mechanism, clip, and that cheesy cap) are the same and interchangeable. It would be great if the cap was made with the same wooden material as the body, and other thicknesses are available (should be very easy for Pilot). Thanks. Absolutely love this pencil.

The same with a recently acquired Pilot S10. An interesting criteria – yes, the lead advances with the cap off. The same with a recently acquired Pilot S10.

This deficiency on my current pencil aggravates me. I like to have access to the eraser at all times. Can the lead be easily clicked out without the eraser cap on?

Since the pencil can take different grades of lead - and some people do use a range of leads - the window allows for a visual designation or indicator of the lead hardness in current use.
