Happy birthday !!!
I have a mechanical pencil that was my father’s back in the 1940′s. It it labelled “Turna” and has four sliders down the side, each of which can push a differently-coloured lead into the tip. Can anybody tell me where I can get leads for this? I have tried as large as I can find, which is .9 mm, but they are even too small.
Nigel, they are probably 1.18mm. Autopoint still makes this diameter.
Looks like you can still buy red, green, blue, and black in 1.1mm (1.18mm). You’d be all set:
