@FromTheRostra Great aren’t they? I carry one almost daily (a modern take) but the maker/machinist stopped making them. There aren’t that many around anymore. You have antiques like yours or Midori. #pencil #edc

I love it when the universe aligns for a hot minute...

So I backed this neat travel organizer on Kickstarter about a year ago, and when it showed up, it was a *chonk* - way too big for what I had intended. It's been languishing on a shelf ever since, because I just couldn't find a use case that it fit... Until today. 😁

We have an all-day Eastern Healthcare Preparedness Coalition (EHPC) Communications and Information Sharing Exercise (COMMEX) coming up tomorrow - it's basically a mock hurricane response for something like Helene. I'm participating as part of Triangle Mutual Aid, for AUXCOMM - amateur radio nerds supporting public safety efforts. ⛑️

I needed an easy way to carry two mesh radios, a ham radio, and their associated doodads... Plus EDC basics like paper & pen, multi-tool, bandaids, etc... And some basic comfort stuff like hand san, sunscreen, bug spray, hand & lip balm... and it turns out this chonker is *perfect*!

(@mbroome has been laughing at me as I run around the house going "ooh, I could put X in there, too!" It's almost certainly overkill for a day in a Durham park, but it'll be fun to shake it down and see how well I guessed at what I'll want.)

The Uni Nano Dia Color 0.7 mm blue leads don't feel fragile in normal writing, the feel while writing is very smooth, they don't smudge, and the lines erase cleanly with a Pentel Clic Erase vinyl eraser.

Unlike the Uni EMOTT 0.9 mm blue-black leads, the 0.7 mm Nano Dia blue leads don't form as much of a flat spot requiring as much rotation to keep a crisp line.

Since it's Amazon Prime Day, I added a new Pentel Sharp Kerry P1037 Blue to my order. That's going to be my #EDC #writing #pencil.
