I Pimped My Bics (See Pic)
4 Stars
I Pimped My Bics (See Pic)
I have a love/hate relationship with these Bic pencils. To begin with, I dislike the idea of buying a bunch of plastic semi-disposable pencils. You CAN refill them, but the leads often cost more than just buying new pencils, so that fact alone infuriates me on principle. I compared a package of 30 Bic lead refills to this package of 40 pencils and it came out to be over 2 1/2 times more expensive to buy the refills (given that each one of these pencils comes with 3 leads, so that's 120 leads). But on this occasion, I really did need extra pencils anyway. I keep these in various locations and use them in the field and in all-weather conditions, so nice ones get lost, borrowed or ruined.The main thing I like about these particular pencils is the lead. It's fairly strong for 0.7mm and it's fairly dark and crisp. I also like that they have clips, although I find the clips do break easily, for example, when I clip to them to my clipboard clamp. But for attaching to pages of a notebook or a thin pocket they're fine. I also like that the barrels all look alike, with the exception of different color clips. I can't stand reaching for a pencil and wondering if this one is lousy or if this one is decent, which happens when I buy different pencils from different brands that are all various colors.One thing I really dislike about these pencils is the shape and manufacturing of the barrel design. The flat sides hurt my fingers, I much prefer a round pencil. Also, they're manufactured with a noticeable seam that I can feel and it sometimes digs into my fingers. Maybe I have sensitive fingers or something, who knows, but it drives me nuts. Before I discovered pencil grips I'd actually sand the seams with fine grit sandpaper.So, between my last purchase of these Bics and this most recent purchase, I went around to local Dollar Stores and bought some of their mechanical pencils, hoping to find something affordable but nicer to hold. I got two packs, each from a different store. One pack had lousy leads, very light/pale lead which broke easily. It had nice pencil grips, but lousy lead. The other package had surprisingly good and dark lead, but cheap, slippery grips. They've all just been sitting around because I can't stand the idea of throwing them out. So I had an idea when I bought these Bics: I "parted out" my dollar store pencils. I took the good grips from the one batch, along with the matching erasers, and I'll use the good leads from the other batch, and I'll put all these onto the Bics!The result is a better - and more fun looking Bic. See my photo. Note that the colorful grips and colorful erasers do not come with these pencils, but look how cool they are now, they match the Bic clips and everything. I'll of course save the white Bic erasers as spares. As an added bonus, I also discovered that the dollar store erasers are significantly larger than the white big erasers. I'd say a good 3mm longer. This was really just a way to try to reuse materials that I wasted money on, but it turned out to be a legitimate upgrade to these Bics. Now the manufacturing seam and flat sides no longer bother me. And when I run out of leads I'm going to try and find some generic ones that are still dark, because paying more for refill leads than the actual pencils is still insanity no matter how nicely I dress these up.
