Update: Chose a 0.3mm lead holder over a 0.5mm for a tight site plan detail last week.

The thinner line was way easier to control for the tiny property line notes, but I went through three leads in an hour. Anyone have a lead holder that's tough on breakage?

Three leads in an hour sounds like a you problem.

Ever think maybe it's the lead that's the problem? Some brands are just brittle and break if you look at them wrong. A grocery list needs pressure for clear letters, that's not a user error. I've had packs where every single lead snapped under normal writing. Blaming the person ignores that maybe the product just sucks.

My 0.3mm lead snapped twice just writing a grocery list.
