Fixpencil rotary sharpener
Description
This is an easy to print rotary sharpener that will fit any desk or drawing table. I am using this sharpener with my 2mm [Caran d'Ache](https://www.carandache.com) Fixpencils and my 2mm [Kita-Boshi](http://www.kitaboshi.co.jp/home/otonanoenpitu.html) 2mm pencil. My oldest mechanical pencils are over 30 years old. They never failed. I suppose the use of these mechanical pencils that last so long has a beneficial impact on the environment over traditional pencils. *2020-02-28 update:* The added file [fixpencil_3mm_BIC_2mm_sharpner_ingress.stl](https://www.thingiverse.com/download:7735024) is to be used with the Caran d'Ache Fixpencil 3mm or the BIC Criterium 2mm. To complete the assembly you will need to build an abrasive ring by cutting a cone of revolution out of sand paper and glue it to the 3D printed ring. I would recommend to use water resistant glue as the sharpener is subject to regular water cleaning. A template is provided made available to download and print in order to facilitate the build process. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/tHTsQXF4DZk" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
