My current absolute favorite 2 mm leads are made by Uni-ball. All four grades tested draw smoothly on the ivory paper, resist smudging, and produce far darker marks than comparable leads from other major manufacturers. Blog entry.

Graphitte USA carbon frames deserve to be recognized as the first production carbon frame that actually came to market. Frank Appel, Richard Kanter, Bill McCready and Jeffrey Lindskoog of the F.H. Appel Company teamed up for the project. Unfortunately, only 16 of the frames were produced in 1975 before bonding problems surfaced that caused production to cease. Nonetheless, three US National titles were won on these frames and one of them was provided to Lucien Van Impe as a climbing bike. Lineseeker/Graftek, another carbon pioneer, began selling their frames in 1977. Unfortunately, they too had similar structural issues prevent marketing success.

I drew this from a photo posted at a site called Watercolor Passion a couple years ago. It was going to be a quick value study for a painting, and then it SO got away from me. I ran across it today when I was thumbing through an old incomplete journal/sketchbook.
Graphite sketches from a single sketchbook, unknown date, but suspect 2009ish.
