Too much crap!

February 3rd, 2004


Argh, there’s too much in my pencil can. I have to remove some of it,
but I don’t really have anywhere else for these items to live:

  • Pentel TwistErase mechanical pencil, 0.5mm (HB)
  • Pentel TwistErase mechanical pencil, 0.7mm (B)
  • Uni-Ball rollerball, black
  • Uni-Ball rollerball, red
  • Uni-Ball GRIP rollerball, red
  • Marks-A-Lot permanent (chisel tip)
  • Staedtler 925 mechanical pencil, 0.5mm (F)
  • Staedtler 925 mechanical pencil, 0.7mm (B)
  • double-ended screwdriver (spring clip)
  • Phillips head screwdriver, steel
  • Phillips head screwdriver, graphite with rotating heel
  • Yellow Sanford ACCENT highlighter (chisel tip)
  • Staedtle r Mars “graphic 3000 duo” brushpen (quite old)
  • Faber-Castell PITT “artist pen”, brush point (new!)
  • Sharpie, double-ended (black)
  • X-Acto blade stem
  • American No. 2 pencil, wood
  • Micro Mag-Lite

And then the fountain pens:

  • Hero “Carrara” 367 FP, blue (inked: Mont Blanc black cartridge)
  • Hero ‘329′ hooded FP, black (inked: Aurora black bottle ink)
  • Waterman Phileas, blue, M (inked: Waterman black cartridge)
  • Pelikan ‘Pelikano’, red, M (inked: Pelikan Königsblau cartridge)
  • Pelikan M75 (’GO!’), black/teal, M (inked: Pelikan Brillant-Grün bottle ink)

Maybe what I need is a second pencil can.
