For the sanding part, I line a cup with sandpaper and swirl the pencil around in it. It collects all the graphite powder in the cup. You can simply tap the cup to make the graphite powder fall out of the grooves of the sandpaper and into the cup.

Many thanks for your instructions. It's always been such a bummer to have pencils break in the sharpners. Ineffective, frustrating and so wasteful. This method seems so much better. I'll keep patient during the most definite learning curve time. Be well 😀

@Cortesevasive 11 ай бұрын

Just buy 2mm clutch lead holder, Staedtler/faber castell. +buy lead pointer sharpener or use the one integrated in the pen. Sharpening wooden pencil is obsolete.
