  • I took a comparative look at the erasers in my "eraser box," which I use daily in writing, as well as when I create pencil review videos. The erasers evaluated in this video include:
    L & C Hardtmuth natural rubber eraser
    Artgum rubber (gum) eraser
    Paper Mate Pink Pearl synthetic rubber eraser
    Milan synthetic rubber eraser
    Staedtler Mars plastic eraser
    Maped Mini Softy plastic eraser
    Mr. Pen vinyl eraser
    Faber-Castell plastic eraser
    In creating lines of graphite to erase with the above list of erasers, I used the following #2/HB pencils:
    USA Titanium
    Dixon Ticonderoga (black)
    Pen+Gear
    Musgrave Ceres
    Blackwing 602
    General's Cedar Pointe

    I have the softy from Maped, but in normal size, it's endless. A couple of months I bought the Maped Technic Ultra, the one that has the core blue, and a Ticonderoga eraser with the form of a pencil. Both of them are really cool, but my favorite is the Technic Ultra.

      Hi C. Perez - I have not tried the Technic Ultra, but I will look for it and pick one up. The Softy from Maped is a good overall eraser and even this small sized one has lasted for a long time. Thanks!

    I love the Milan erasers. They're my favorite of all times.

      Hi - I like the Milan erasers also - they do a good job on most graphite. Thanks for watching!

    Hello! Thank you for the videos! I’ve noticed in your pencil reviews you use the same pencil sharpener. Have you done a review on small sharpeners like that or do you have a favorite make/model?

    • @AlwaysAnalog
      @AlwaysAnalog  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Hi Dan! I haven't done a review of small sharpeners - I don't have that many of them. I actually prefer a full-sized hand-crank sharpener, but the Helix brand small sharpener I use on many videos I find to be very good. It catches all the shavings and graphite dust, and sharpens nicely. I'll have to do a video that takes a closer look at these sharpeners. Thanks!

    I just got the Mars eraser at Office Depot but have not used it yet. Glad to know it does ok. I've noticed the USA Titanium leaves a shadow most of the time. I do make a lot of mistakes.
    I just ordered the Musgrave Tenn. Red and 320 pro. Thank you for taking the time to do these reviews.

    • @AlwaysAnalog
      @AlwaysAnalog  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Dean! Overall, I think the Mars is one of the best pencil erasers. I think you will like using it. Enjoy the pencils you ordered from Musgrave. The Tennessee Red is a really beautiful pencil. Thanks for watching!

    So many stores are making their own in-house stationery brands now, even drugstores are doing it! I noticed CVS now has its own brand called Wexford I think and they make the white vinyl erasers if you have one near you and want to review those.

    • @AlwaysAnalog
      @AlwaysAnalog  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi SV. It seems like many stores have house-brands of office and school supplies. I tried the Wexford pencils and I didn't care for them. Maybe the erasers would be better. Thanks!

      @@AlwaysAnalog most likely yes because vinyl erasers like the white eraser blocks many brands make erase so much better than the pink wedge ones.

      The Mars? In my experience it erases well but needs a little too much force to erase effectively. I prefer the Faber-Castell Dust Free.

    @greekveteran2715 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    If you want to upgrade, the best erasers out there are: Tombow Mono Plastic. Sakura Sumogrip and Pentel Light and Soft. They remove graphite better and faster, without damaging the paper's teeth, also they don't smudge!

    • @AlwaysAnalog
      @AlwaysAnalog  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Greek Veteran - thanks for the recommendations. I have tried the Sakura Sumogrip and it is an excellent eraser. I haven't tried the other ones you mention but I will. Thank you!
