## Description

Pilot Mini Mechanical Pencil Birdy, 0. 5mm, Silver

Review: This pencil fits the Winsor & Newton Cotman Watercolor Paint Set, Sketchers' Pocket Set perfectly WITH the included paintbrush. I was worried it might be too large at first but it fits perfect with the included paintbrush, closes flush with no fuss. The fact it takes standard .5 lead and has an eraser just makes this quality metal pencil easy to use for sketching or quick note taking.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the tip retractable?**
A: The lead is retractable, not the tip of the pencil.

**Q: What is the diameter of this pencil?**
A: About 5/32" in diameter not including the clip. Clip extends about 1/8" out from the body of the pencil and is about 1-1/4" long. Pencil itself is about 4-3/8" long.

**Q: How do you refill the lead?**
A: Pull off the cap, pull off the eraser, drop in some lead!

**Q: Are there eraser refills for this pencil?**
A: I don't recommend this pencil. It broke and fell apart shortly after I purchased it, and the seller refused to provide any solution. I've used quite a few pencils of similar kind, and this particular one is of worst quality.
