Swapped my mechanical pencil for a plain old #2 Ticonderoga
Used to think I needed a fancy drafting pencil with all these different lead grades to get a good sketch, but after my truck broke down in Kansas and that was all the gas station had, I found the simpler line actually made me focus more on the shape instead of the tool. Anyone else ever ditch the fancy gear and go back to something basic?

Wait, your truck broke down in Kansas and you only found a Ticonderoga?

Right?? I had the same thing happen in Nebraska once, broke down and the only thing in the gas station was a single pack of cheap mechanical pencils. It's like the universe just laughs at you in the middle of nowhere lol
