Have you ever seen a hanging pencil holder? Here you go

By Evan Griffith

Zane’s hanging pencil holder

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh yes!

It is simplest invention/contraption . . .

Here, an eight-year old boy invents what I didn’t know I needed, by riffing off of two paper clips, some tape to hold it down, and a small Post It fashioned as a nest for the pencil.

The hanging pencil holder stays in place without the calculator atop its mount (which is how I first found it when I put the calculator back in its place).

Thank you (again)
