Pencil
Here is a free pencil block, drawn as a clean CAD block ready for a plan or detail drawing where a ready-made block saves time. Its objetos, decorac and accessories detailing is kept crisp and to scale, with tidy linework you can recolour or re-layer in seconds. It is supplied as a clear 2D block that sits comfortably on plan and is just as happy in a cleaner presentation drawing. Placed in a layout it drops straight into a drawing and saves you redrawing it by hand, saving you from redrawing a pencil from scratch every time. Files are provided in DWG, ready to open in AutoCAD and most CAD software. It is one of the more popular blocks in our other cad blocks library, free for personal and commercial use with no signup required.

Where you’ll use it
In your drawings
The pencil block suits general architectural and interior drawings, plans, details and presentation sheets. It works equally well in working drawings and in cleaner presentation sheets. Drop it onto a dedicated other cad blocks layer so it stays easy to manage as your project grows.
Dimensions & scale
Sizing & units
The block is drawn to a typical real-world size for its object type; sanity-check the footprint before you commit it. The block is drawn at 1:1 in millimeters, so insert it at scale 1 and adjust only if your drawing uses different units.
How to insert in AutoCAD
Using the Pencil block
Download the DWG file and open it in AutoCAD (2004 or later) or any DWG-compatible CAD app. Use the INSERT command — or simply copy and paste — to place the pencil into your drawing, then position, rotate and mirror it to suit your layout. Keep your drawing units set to millimeters and insert at scale 1 so it matches real-world size. Move it onto a dedicated other cad blocks layer to keep your file tidy.
