I Still use a Pencil sharpener in the Garage

Electric Pencil Sharpener at that!

This is the coolest pencil sharpener that I’ve ever seen. My grandfather salvaged it from a old train station more then half a century ago.
You insert the pencil in the top and turn the crank.
Three knives rotate, shaving the side off the pencil. As the knife goes by a cog it rotates the pencil an eighth of a turn. The next knife shaves the side off, and rotates another eighth of a turn.
Gotta be a century old, still works slick.

I like the sharpeners with the adjustable size holes. Works great for putting points on different size wooden dowel rods.

On a similar note, have you seen the new carpenter pencils? They have round lead not flat like the originals, glad I still have a bunch left. Sharpen with a knife

I also have one in the garage, but don't have a cover for it.
Was in a box full of parts that i purchased.
Gets used every so often, with the shavings then get blown away, off the work bench.

I use a razor blade or a small knife on Carpenter Pencils.

Once a carpenter, always a carpenter. I still have a couple decades of free promo carpenters pencils left to go through.
