I was also disappointed, I saw the ad and the fancy packaging that it comes with it , and people saying it’s heavy , and it’s it’s it’s it’s , but I got the same one as you and honestly it’s good but very expensive , I bought it for 10$ and still expensive, and the weight is just disastrous, and the plactic is not high quality , that’s sad man ! And the pen didn’t come with the packaging that I saw , I think there is the cheap one and the expensive one
That is a great question. I know there is a bit of a trick to it. I'll have to play around with it a little and I'll make a new video for it. In the meantime, I do know that you can reverse-feed it through through the nib/nose cone. But I also know we can do better than that. I'll get back to you.
@twodesksproductions I appreciate your speedy response. I tried the bottom feed, to no avail. I was surprised to find no video on this since it's so different from other mechanical pencils. My pencil is a I tried what one RU-vid video (lady with short hair) recommends with no success. Part of me wonders if my pencil lead is jammed, so maybe that is a topic you could address in your video. Lastly, I reached out to Cross. Mainly because some RU-vid replies can take months. Again, I thank you for your willingness to help.
I just spent some time with this pencil and I can't figure it out. This is a unique pencil that screws all the way out and then can't turn any more. I thought that maybe if you screw the other way all the way that it might open up a mechanism that allows a new lead to feed into the pencil, but I haven't gotten that to work. If you get a response from Cross or otherwise figure it out, I would love to know how to do it, but at the moment, I'm flat out stumped.
@@twodesksproductions Wow!! I surprised that you are stumped too. I see that Cross has a RU-vid channel and I'm not sure why they don't have videos there. When / If I hear from Cross, I'll let you know what they say.
We would love to hear about how you used a pencil/pen for self defense. If you want to record a short audio story about your experience and email it to us (themeasuredpencil@gmail.com) we'll definitely consider using it on the show.
Those aren't jotters. The litle that you showed them, looks like Parker "Classic", else named as lady. It was a different product line from jotter, classic model was a bit thinner made for women hands.
@nikossiotas Thank you for pointing it out. That would make sense about why I complain that they're too thin. I'm going to look into this more and I'll create a new video with what I find.
Great Story. At 70 I have selective taken the happy days of my past and forgotten most of the bad. I am a better person than I have ever been. Did I say I was a Vietnam Vet.
