The Four Candies 25-piece set is an entry-level professional kit that covers a wide range of technical drawing needs. The pencils feature an aluminum alloy barrel with a knurled metal grip, which shifts the weight toward the tip to help with precision and reduce hand strain. Specifications indicate the set includes 0.5mm, 0.7mm, and 0.9mm pencils, along with three 2.0mm lead holders for bolder artistic work.
Practical Art Organization
This kit comes in a zippered EVA storage case, which offers better structural protection for the tools than standard cardboard packaging. The included 432 lead refills use a synthetic graphite-polymer composite, which is built to be more break-resistant than traditional leads. This large volume of refills helps eliminate the need for frequent supply runs for at least 18 to 24 months of regular use.
The 2.0mm holders use a drop-clutch mechanism and feature a sharpener built into the cap for convenience. To keep the cap threads moving smoothly, it is helpful to occasionally wipe away any graphite dust that collects from the sharpener. While the 0.5mm pencil is ideal for fine details, it is designed for a lighter touch to maintain the best line consistency.
For those who prefer a more streamlined set without the 2.0mm holders, the Paper Mate Clearpoint 10-count Pack provides a simplified solution for general writing.
