Here's a pic of just the pencils I've completely worn down over the last two months. These are all now too small to fit into my manual sharpener.  The colorful ones are the Faber-Castell, and the ones with the cedar wood are the Caran d'Ache.  I included a full size pencil for reference.

That's a work of art right there.  Adam, you mount them on a decent piece of card in a "random" arrangement, and I'll buy it there and then…...

Marvelous idea, G!  This will definitely happen  :-*, don't know when though  8).  I think it can improve….I got some ideas...maybe call it "The Special G Pencil Version"

thanks a ton for the insight @adam313 looks really spectacular what you´re doing there and some sort of "peaceful" to set your mind right somehow. so what sharpeners are you using now?

One of my all time favorites. I get my fix now through the Professor and his Deadpod.

This is on the same paper as The Purps (^^above), but it's five years older! Cotton paper ages like cotton jeans  This one is still going strong, but just about to retire

The Blue is officially retired!  An IHForum exclusive one-off peace.  Here's the raw, un-cropped, minimized .jpg version (the original .tif is 600MB )

Shipping out The Blue today!! Over-engineered was my starting point to get it overseas safely. But UPS was not amused

And a few framed offerings, just to provide some ultimate possibilities:

Made a half dollar dome pendant

Annealed

Pickled and cleaned up

Domed

Popped in a jump ring

Patina'd with liver of sulfur

Turned out well but the hole stretched a little. Next time I'll drill from the backside of the coin and use a drill press. Drilling a half dollar with a Dremel is surprisingly difficult!
