Step 2The Barrel

The Barrel
To make the barrel, you first need to get rid of the writing cone. The writing cone is the gray cone attached to the clear cylinder in the picture in step one. I find that the easiest way to do this is to let the cone hang off the edge of a desk, and break it off with your palm. Once the cone is off, you should be able to pull the eraser shaft out.

I wrote this step down as a joke for my friend. He didn't get it and when he slapped his hand on the pencil, it flew 10 feet away from his desk and hit his girlfriend on the butt.

Pope, this guy was trying to help people like you find something to do in their spare time, and you can only find something negative to say. I hope you get banned. And "u sux?" go back to school.
