The world's largest pencil
A carpenter named "Ashrita Furman" in the United States suddenly had a brainstorm one day and gathered many retired carpenters to jointly make the world's largest pencil. A long time to choose a pencil, so this pencil will be so thick and tall, not only the height of 23.165 meters, comparable to a train car, but also the weight of two elephants combined, up to 9.7 tons.
Of course, like making the world's largest wooden bowl, the process of making the world's largest pencil was also very difficult, even though there were already more than forty members in the team, it still took two weeks to successfully complete the production, and in these two weeks, they almost all worked from morning to night for 12 hours, simply not too hard.
And the production of such a pencil than the pole is several times thicker than the low-cost thing, it is said that not only is looking for a ginormous tree, but they also spent 2 tons of graphite, and a lot of paint, and in order to be more realistic, they also designed the eraser on the end of the pencil, although it does not look big, but also used a full 90 kg of eraser material.
But the final result is still very gratifying, especially in the town so many people watching, the crane to lift the giant pencil, the scene is simply not too spectacular, and in order to be more realistic, Ashleta was also painted yellow for the side of the pencil, and wrote a row of fine print letters, even the pencil head on the knife marks, he also made a subtle, it is very shocking.
Nowadays, with constant innovation, there are very many different kinds of pencils, and generally the price of ordinary pencils is not expensive. Pencils can be said to be the memories of many people's childhood, we all basically used as children. Now many people who study art, also often use pencils, and in addition to black pencils, there are a variety of colored pencils, but also often used by people.
