Aw gee somebody beat me to it. I was hoping to get my 26,000 lb 56" swing lathe brought on line to sharpen my pencils before someone else thought of it :bow:

I have seen some stupid ideas, but this sure is just ridiculous. -- :headscratch: --:headscratch: -- :headscratch:

Now all that is needed is an automatic feed, a collet closer, then an unloaded and packaging machine. It would revolutionize the work shop. :clapping:

We all need a bit of humor and frivolity in our lives these days.

Sorry guys, I cannot agree with the methods shown or propossed for sharpening a pencil. Surely using a CNC machine and mill cutters would give a far more accurate result.

Different people enjoy different things.

If you're going to carve pencils, you might as well do it right. This gal does it with carpenters' pencils...
