    AUGH.

    I ran out of 2B 0.9mm leads a while ago and because 2020 I've not had a chance to go to a shop to stock up again, so I've been using HB leads and... it's just not right. Not right at all.

    But today, I had to visit Atlantis - an art shop in Hackney, not the fabled sunken utopia - and stocked up on leads, scalpel blades and erasers and gosh, my pencils feel *right* again.

    Hard leads suck ass.

    • I'm more of a 0.5 mm HB kind of guy. And come on, HB isn't *that* hard.Continuity
