Arrange "A Wooden Lead Pencil" step-by-step
1. Typically, a wooden lead pencil is about 0.8 cm in diameter and about 19 cm long.
2. The shape of the wooden lead pencil resembles that of a piece of dowel, or the shaft of an arrow, with the exception that many pencils are hexagonal, rather than round, in cross-sectional shapes are found.
3. The purpose of the wooden case is to make the pencil confortable to hold and to provide rigidity.
4. The case if composed of two parts: that is, it is divided lengthwise into identical halves.
5. A wooden lead pencil is a device for drawing or writing on a suitable medium with a piece of graphite permanently encased in a slender wooden shaft or holder.
6. Before it can be used, a wooden lead pencil must be sharpened: wood must be shaved off the end opposite the eraser end, and the graphite itself must be shaved down to a point.
7. The purpose of the eraser is to remove unwanted marks from the medium being written upon.
8. Each half of the case contains a semicircular groove centered along the length of the flat side, to receive the graphite, and each has a slightly diminished cross-sectional at one end over which to slip the metal ferrule.
9. In appearance, the ferrule is simple a piece of metal tubing about 1.5 cm long, and 0.8 in diameter, often painted to harmonize with the case and the eraser.
10. When assembled, the two halves of the case are glued together, with the graphite held in the hole created by the matching semicircular grooves.
11. It is usually in the form of a cylinder about 0.3 cm in diameter, and is the same length as the case.
12. As the graphite wears away in use, the pencil must be resharpened.
13. This diminished cross-sectional area is usually round, regardless of the shape of the rest of the case.
14. It is typically a rubber cylinder about 1.5 cm in length which will fit tightly inside the ferrule; and it is often made of colored rubber.
15. It is made up of four parts: the graphite, the wooden case, an eraser, and a ferrule by which the eraser is attached.
16. The purpose of the ferrule is to attach the eraser to the case.
17. The eraser and the case are inserted into opposite ends of the ferrule; they are secured in place by indentions which have been stamped into the ferrule after assembly.
18. The case is normally painted.
19. For pencils having a novel cross section, the graphite may be molded in some form other than that of a cylinder.
20. The function of the graphite is, of course, to make marks on the paper or other medium
