Continuous pencil
This little article over at Lines and Colors about the Continuous pencil concept from Yanko design is really something. I for one have both mechanical pencils and lead holders, but I always seem to return back to basic wood pencils. Something about them always felt right, even though mechanical and lead holders are good for very specific kinds of effects.
I think it would be cool to see this idea come to fruition. Although putting in the lead with my clumsy hands would probably lead to a mess.
