How to Make Elder Pencils (clip)

In this video clip from our course, we are going to use elder to make an elder pencil. We need to have our tent pegs at the ready to make the hole in the soft inner wood and can then put the charcoal that we made in the previous lesson inside the pencil.
If we are going for the full pencil, we may want to finish it off with a knife but for younger children, the basic pencil is more than adequate.
