When was the last time that you used a pencil?

It seems even tradespeople use Sharpie style pens these days instead of a pencil.

This is incorrect. Unless you are marking cables the ink bleeds through paint if used on wood or walls.

Best thing to use is a good old pencil although I use the pica pencil being a carpenter.
 
All the time when i’m renovating/building and on occasion when I help my son draw.

You may not be getting the answers you thought but they are far from dead!

I use my Apple Pencil a lot too ;)
 
Just now. I didn't need to though. Just wanted some pencil thread points :D

I did use one the other day, marking lengths of wood to chop for kindling. I always use a pencil for DIY at home too.

Edit: my Dad's a carpenter, always had loads of these lying around at home when I was growing up:

I made it compulsory for writing on the calendar on the fridge as the wife would use a pen then scribble out and change dates so annoying and untidy :p
