@Louis Carlos Fer word

Implying those were mistakes
jk but srs
How long until someone shows up to represent typewriters?
They are mechanically interesting. The old school ones.
Titanium pencil?!
Elaborate please.
@Legalize photos please too
Kind of looks like the Tactile Turn.
Gorgeous.
I want one.
I also want a Modern Fuel pencil
Since pencils are more my thing I imagine getting a Modern Fuel beforoe the Tactile Turn.
It isn't monolithic but it's built to look that way.
Your choice of titanium, phosphorus bronze, tellurium copper, or stainless steel
My choice will be Titanium because... well, titanium.
They honestly did not really seem like they were worth it.
Ah, I used a staedtler pointer. Alvin makes one like it also.
The Gist?
Seems nice. I'd like to find one in the style of the porsche design titanium. I really like that sleek elegant look but I don't want to spend 1000 for a porsche fountain pen.
I prefer tungsten, but it's nearly impossible to work with.
Not just saying that maintain rivalry either 🤣
I _love_ tungsten.
Tungsten is _very_ heavy, and very hard. It's difficult to cut and turn with machine tools. It's even difficult to cast and melt (melting point 3422 °C)
That's the primary reason in its cost. It isn't a rare substance, but it is very difficult to work.
hmm
I think I have a tungsten AR charging handle
didn't realize it was that durable
Well tungsten is fairly brittle because of its extreme hardness.
When used as jewelry polishing it is virtually unnecessary because ordinary materials cannot scratch it.
It is used as a substitute for U238 depleted uranium in armor piercing projectiles.
nice
The primary utility og tungsten carbide is tool tips,
Yes.
Some day I will own an awesome tungsten pencil. Even if I have to make it myself 🤓
A charging handle made of tungsten is a strange choice.
