  • Technical Description Mechanical Pencil Portfolio
    The Mechanical Pencil A Technical Description The mechanical pencil is a reusable wri�ng instrument that uses a lead-advance mechanism to extend rods of graphite lead forward. The mechanical pencil is most commonly used for drawing pictures, designs or symbols, and wri�ng text on paper. Tombow Pencil Co. is recognized for high-quality mechanical pencils, and mul�farious erasers. This document uses the Tombow Mono Graph pencil (as a model) to describe the features and components of a mechanical pencil. Features The mechanical pencil is a precision wri�ng instrument more commonly used for drawing than wooden pencils and uses either dra�ing lead or thin leads. Graphic art, technical drawing, and wri�ng professionals use the mechanical pencil to create a line of constant thickness. (see fig. 1) • Life�me reusable holder • Individual replacemtn of graphite lead rods • Pencil never decreases in size or need to be sharpened • Rubber gripping prevents callus buildup under the middle finger joint The mechanical pencil combines the features of a wooden pencil and a ballpoint pen. It can be held in the palm of a hand and is made of hi-impact plas�c or metal. Approximately one-third of the mechanical pencil is wrapped with so� black rubber for gripping between the thumb, index, and middle finger while wri�ng or drawing. The clamp holder (or clip), located at the top, can slide into a T-shirt breast pocket allowing for hands-free carrying and easy access. Types There are three basic types of mechanisms used to extend the graphite lead in the mechanical pencil.

    How to Make ‘Condor Tails’ BY JAMEEL ABRAHAM An ingenious way to combine routers, a band saw and hand tools for big dovetails. know what you’re thinking: “Another opinion on how to cut I dovetails.” I hear you. But this one’s different. I promise. No back and forth over pins or tails first. No Rob Cosman vs. Frank Klausz. Well, actually a little Klausz. When I built my first serious workbench in the 1990s I practically memorized Scott Landis’ “The Work- bench Book” (Taunton) and like many woodworkers I was attracted to Frank Klausz’s beautiful bench, especially the large, crisp dovetails that joined the parts of the tail vise. Klausz told us what tools he used to cut the joints, but didn’t elaborate much on technique. I suppose with a lifetime of skill at your command, you just pick up the tools and the joint emerges. I wanted the crisp look of Klausz’s joints without waiting 20 years to develop the skill. After build- ing several large benches over the past few years, this technique emerged. Best of Both Worlds I’m a big believer in making dovetail Enormous perfection. Cutting large-scale dovetails, such as for this workbench, can be a challenge. joints that fit right off the saw. That’s a This technique makes it straightforward. skill that’s easy to learn with some prac- tice. But not so with the beefy members of a workbench, or large-scale furni- railing just to get the thing vertical so where they excel. This is truly blended ture.

  • Pencil Size and Their Impact on Penmanship Legibility
    5 Pencil Size and their Impact on Penmanship Legibility Becky Sinclair Texas A&M University-Commerce Susan Szabo Texas A&M University-Commerce Abstract Legible penmanship is important. However, young students have difficulty producing legible handwriting (Marr, Windsor, & Cermak, 2001). As legible handwriting is a benefit for both the students and the teachers in the classroom setting, this study examined if pencil size had an impact on preschool and kindergarten students’ handwriting. The students used four different pencil sizes over a two-week period. The data showed pencil size did not impact handwriting legibility but there was a pencil size preference difference between preschool and kindergarten students, which may impact the yearly student supply lists. This action research study began after several second-year teachers attended a mandated professional development workshop on the importance of teaching handwriting. During the workshop they learned that writing promotes thinking, builds communication skills, enhances learning and reading, and builds fine motor skills. In addition, they examined the writing Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) and found that kindergarten students should be able to form upper and lower-case letters using the basic conventions of print (left to right and top-to- bottom). The teachers were curious to know if pencil size had an impacted preschoolers and kindergarten students’ handwriting legibility. However, they were not interested in writing an article, so they gave us the data to do so. Theoretical Framework There are several theories that can be connected to penmanship: 1) connection theory; and 2) motor learning theory. First, the connection theory looks at the idea that handwriting legibility is related to fluency of writing and reading skills (Rose, 2004).
