Woodturning - Log to Pencils

A few weeks back I made some Pencils, however not standard Pencils as most might think, a couple of people said they would like to see how normal everyday pencils are made and how the lead is inserted into the wood. The steps I have followed here is basically how pencils are made on an industrial scale, although different equipment is used for different steps but the process is there or there about's.

Most Pencils would normally be made from Cedar, have non of that so I've used a small Apple Log, works well enough.
