      I love this wood working book WoodKing.xyz . A few of the topics talked about in the book include wood working strategies, explanation on the development cycles of trees, and various lumber characteristics that craftsmen favor. I also provided my father another copy.

      No offense but if you lose your pencils what makes you think you won't lose these as well. It is a novel idea but using exotic woods that will be just sharpened away is a waste in my opinion. But if it turns your crank go for it. Regards.

    Hey, David. I have a wild hair and would love to get started on making my own hand crafted pencils. I’m a collector of pencils and have enjoyed them most of my life. I always felt if I had the knowledge and the tools, I could make a pencil that I truly want and could share with friends.
    My question is, what can I do to get started on this journey? What are the tools I should consider buying and resources to look into (besides your channel, of course) to embark on this exciting side quest in my life?
    Thanks in advance!
