True, but all of us non-bench techs would have most likely not worn a pencil out! The old Bic pens were a slightly better fit but there were not as many of those laying around as the old #2 hardwood pencils.


I have about the same number of the Bic and wood pencils and in fact I used them to wind the cassettes more often than writing with them.

The pencil can be used to wind the tape if need be.


Are you under 30, like the OP asked you to be?

Sure - that's how you rewind a tape - with the pencil

A while back a bunch of members posted their age - I got 83 of them in a spreadsheet - the average age is 80…


I’m glad I’m above average at something
