There are plenty of places on the web where youâre told how a pencil is made, but have you really ever had a chance to see it in action at a factory like Musgrave Pencil Company?!
And while we wish we could welcome you through our doors to see it in person (alas, we donât offer tours of our pencil factory for safety reasons), we can show you some amazing close-ups of our machines hard at work making custom made in the USA pencils.
But before we dive in, itâs helpful to see a visual of the production process. First things first: Think of a pencil like a sandwich. Itâs made up of a single graphite core sandwiched between two slices of wood, held together with glue. Once that âsandwichâ is made, itâs sent through machines for cutting, shaping, painting, printing, and tipping (set with an eraser and a ferrule).
Do you offer tours? Our seniors group would be interested. I believe you did several years ago.
A large-hole sharpener should be included (or at least sold) with jumbo pencils that do not come pre-sharpened.
