Pencil Sharpener Update

All is not lost, we have now reverted to the original Rapesco 64 and when ŵe ordered them they came looking exactly like the previous QConnect sharpeners and they work beautifully. they are a bit more expensive depending on supplier but we are holding our old price.

Now following on from my previous blog about how to use a sharpener the following photos illustrate how to unclog the sharpeners when a pencil tip breaks off inside.
First unscrew the base of the handle to remove the sharpening core and handle. This can sometimes be extremely stiff.

Then using an old bent 0.5 embossing tool, bent paper clip or similar dislodge the tip from the base of the sharpening well.

Finally replace mechanism back inside sharpener and screw in firmly.
Job done!!
