Carpenter pencils are pencils that are used for carpentry and woodworking. They have a rectangular or elliptical cross-section to prevent them from rolling away. They also have a thicker and stronger lead than regular pencils, which makes them suitable for marking rough surfaces like wood, concrete, and stone
Carpenter pencils are useful for making clear and visible lines that can last for a long time. They can help you take accurate measurements and mark areas for cutting, drilling, or nailing. They are also easier to grip than standard pencils because they have a larger surface area.
Carpenter pencils can be sharpened with a knife, a utility blade, or a special carpenter pencil sharpener. They come in different colors and sizes depending on your preference and needs.
