But there are many different types of pencils. So I decided to find out.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eUsing a combination of scientific papers and my own experiments, this smallprint shows a scale drawing of the different length of lines that different pencils can draw.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eThe paper in question looked at a model that could accurately replicate the line of a pencil through computer graphics. Part of the model involved exploring how much graphite would be removed by drawing a line given the fact that different types of pencil contain varying amounts of graphite, wax and composite.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eApplying this logic to a range of pencil grades from 8H to 8B, I reached an answer, which is shown in the scaled lines etched into the pencil nip from soft on the left to hard on the right.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eEssentially, if you're using an 8H pencil, you could be walking a very long line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e105mm W x 148mm H\u003cbr class=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003eWraparound Mount\u003cbr\u003e350gsm Heavy Weight Paper\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003eMade in the UK\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eData Source\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModels of Pencil Materials\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ploterre","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55577537347969,"sku":null,"price":10.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/9187\/8830\/files\/SM_pencil1.jpg?v=1777376330","url":"https:\/\/ploterre.com\/products\/taking-a-line-for-a-walk-smallprint","provider":"Ploterre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
