Sierra Pencil kits, Does it exist?

[aksarben]

My wife wants me to make her a pencil for her. I really like the Sierra design and have looked around for these in a pencil.

It appears that they were made at one time but maybe not anymore, is this correct or am I just missing where they are?

If not, does anyone have one that they would be willing to sell?

Thanks
Scott

No, the kit does not exist but it is possible to make a sierra pencil. Scott Hettel, aka Mudder here on IAP, developed a conversion and shared it with us. The conversion is not difficult. Scott's conversion uses a schmidt pencil mechanism. The conversion instructions are available in the library in both written and video form. You'll find it here: http://www.penturners.org/forum/forum.asp?FORUM_ID=45

Do a good turn daily!

Don, I spent the last hour trying to find the same post, but it kept timing out on me. I'm glad I'm not the only one that remembered.[B)]

I found another posting that answered some questions for me.

Lots of good information.

Don gave you the place to find the info and I'll make my standard offer. If you read the PDF and watch the video and still have problems or questions than shoot me a PM and give me your phone number and the best time to call you and I'll do my best to talk you through the whole process. I have a real good calling plan and helping people with the conversion is a way that I can give back the the Pencrafting community and the IAP for all of the knowledge that I have gained here.
