Mechanical or wooden?

Do english people really have to say mechanical and wooden pencil?
Ah well, I refer:
'Potlood' as pencil, a wooden pencil.
'pen' as pen, a mechanical pencil.

I'll look for that though, At least it'll work better than with pen.

To be fair, wooden pencils have more lead variety. I've only seen HB and 2B for mechanic.

And the fact I'm not used to draw as tiny as Milt's doodles.

Fun Fact: The first set of doodles was done using a 2B regular wood pencil that had a huge crack running down the length of the pencil. I was rationing my mechanic's lead because I was down to my last piece. Said wood pencil decided to split in half an hour later while in my pencil bag.

So that was the reason why they looked a bit different. I see
