You can find them at Office Depot (and other places, too!) in a pack of 4-- I really love them (plus they have a little collar on them so if your hands are dirty it doesn't dirty the eraser). They leave ropes and are very gentle to the paper-- don't leave any residue. I don't know if this is what you're looking for, but I've been very happy with these erasers myself. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1083122230647551113.post-27315094698897926362010-08-17T14:06:07.399-04:002010-08-17T14:06:07.399-04:00I use a Papermate Black Magic, instead of crumblie...I use a Papermate Black Magic, instead of crumblies or ropes it makes a really super fine dust that is easily blown away or in my case I use a small feather brush.. It even gets pencils out from my heavy hand.. which makes me happy since I used to have to rely on an electric eraser that ate my paper.Christopher Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17761368603739749027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1083122230647551113.post-39046004145431636532010-08-17T09:14:31.673-04:002010-08-17T09:14:31.673-04:00Have you tried "drafting erasers"?

Mine leaves ropies instead of crumblie bits. <br /><br />Also, the erasers Sakura of America work the same way;<br /><br />http://www.sakuraofamerica.com/<br /><br />I've only gotten one of those in those "starting art kits" that come with pens and a mechanical pencil. That's one of my favorite erasers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1083122230647551113.post-55653278378429351772010-08-17T07:11:12.516-04:002010-08-17T07:11:12.516-04:00Hi Chris,

Not because they're better pencils, particularly, but because they are coated with this incredible, saturated, sort-of-cobalt blue paint that makes me unreasonably happy every time I look at them.Chris Ruggiahttp://www.jackcomics.com/noreply@blogger.com
