A jar of graphite powder, a dry brush and an eraser serve as her tools. The paper, her canvas. As Melissa Cooke Benson dusts thin layers of graphite onto the surface, not a single pencil mark is used ...

Moving on from what I'm discussing in this thread a web page I've found talks about using graphite powder to lubricate fans. They say that it can be purchase from auto or hardware stores, but so far I ...
