Mechanical Pencil Kits
Turn a beautiful wood blank into a functional writing instrument with the Mechanical Pencil Kit — a classic click pencil that looks just like a traditional #2 pencil but performs like a precision tool. Built around a single-tube 3/8" design, this kit features a heavy-duty 2mm lead mechanism that lets you draw, write, mark, or draft with comfort and ease. Available in Antique Brass, Antique Pewter, Chrome, and Gold platings.
What truly sets the Mechanical Pencil Kit apart is its built-in eraser and sharpener combo. A large push-button eraser sits at the top, and tucked inside the eraser housing is a working pencil sharpener — giving the finished piece the full look and functionality of a classic #2 pencil in a handcrafted wood barrel. It's a conversation-starting, practical desk accessory that's surprisingly quick to turn.
Features
Classic #2 Pencil Look: Designed to mimic the iconic look of a traditional wooden pencil — with a handcrafted twist.
Click Mechanism: Smooth click-advance delivers and retracts the 2mm lead with one hand.
Heavy-Duty 2mm Lead: Thick 2mm lead is ideal for drawing, sketching, drafting, or everyday writing — far more durable than standard mechanical pencil lead.
Push-Button Eraser: Large eraser on the top cap keeps corrections close at hand.
Built-In Sharpener: A pencil sharpener is hidden inside the eraser housing — sharpen the lead right from the pencil itself.
Single-Tube Design: 3/8" single brass tube keeps the build simple and beginner-friendly.
Excellent Gift Piece: The familiar pencil shape surprises recipients — a functional, handcrafted desk item with a clever twist.
