Product Description

This Mechanical Pencil features a sleek, modern design with a smooth, matte finish. Its streamlined shape and well-balanced proportions make it both functional and stylish.

Modeling and Animation Process

I used Blender to model the pencil, carefully crafting each part to fit together perfectly. After modeling, I created a simple animation that shows the assembly process step-by-step. The result is a clear and easy-to-follow GIF that visually demonstrates how the pencil is put together.

Assembly Step-by-Step

This Mechanical Pencil is assembled as follows:

  1. Insert the Lead Mechanism: Place the 0.7mm lead mechanism into the main body.
  2. Prepare the Tip: Use a small sewing needle to push all the way through the tip, enlarging the hole just enough for the lead to pass through smoothly without being too loose.
  3. Attach the Tip: Screw the tip onto the main body.
  4. Add the Eraser Grip: Slide the eraser grip onto the bottom of the pencil.
  5. Insert the Eraser: Place the eraser into the eraser grip.
  6. Cover the Eraser: Snap on the eraser cover.

Once assembled, the pencil is ready for use, featuring a reliable mechanism from a Staples mechanical pencil.

 

Extra Parts Needed (IMPORTANT)

In order to use this pencil, you need to take a mechanical pencil, (fig.1) and take out the lead mechanism (fig.2).

Then you also need to use the eraser that comes with the pencil (fig.3).

you break a normal mechanical pencil and steal its lead mechanism

I'd love to, but the issue is that the hole size is 1.2 mm and my printer is not the best with accuracy, so what i'd suggest you do it try finding a slightly bigger needle when you set the hole and it should work w a .9 mm lead

Absolutely Brilliant. Can modify for different mechanisms. Don't let the fact that you don't have the exact mechanism prevent you from printing it.

could not get my printer to print one of the parts and other parts for the pencil kept falling over and failing the print. nice print idea not well executed. Sorry it could be better though! I recommend checking out the supports as i could be an issue with them!! Thanks! Regards-Bionic_Bolt

Other Issues:Simply didn't work. The mechanism I was using fit in the body, but the top clicker did not fit onto the tube, the threaded tip didn't fit all the way onto the threads, and the hole on the tip was way to big lead just fell out, would not recommend. I decided to design my own mechanical pencil and I got mine to work great.
