pencils are made with glue. Thats how they get the "lead" inside them. I appreciate if you dont want to handle it (but you wouldnt need anywhere near as much as is demonstrated, a couple of drops inside would do fine), but from a "reusable" perspective, its still better than throwing away a pencil stub (if you keep the glue well sealed!)
- Wowfunhappy 5y agoAh, by "not reusable," I wasn't referring to environmental concerns. Rather, it's a "consumable" substance that will eventually get used up, and I'll have to remember to buy more! So are the pencils of course, but the glue adds another thing.
- supermatt 5y agoI suppose you could stockpile stubs until you get the glue - although with my memory thats a sure-fire way to end up with a 12m pencil :p Drying up in the bottle is an issue too :(
