I sharpen my pencils like an employee. Thanks for the tutorial. Will try it out.

[@FineArtTips]

You are very welcome Eric.

[@thepotatosaurus8190]

boi i sharpen like some guy who failed the interview xD

[@xingyuzhou1891]

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.

[@generationwolves]

Ingenious !!!

[@sweeteric76]

excellent , I am a wood carver so this is easy for me =) the drawing..not as much =)
