I find wooden pencils to be comforting objects.
I don't actually write with them, or even have many around. Maybe they are best to play with. Professor and mathematician George W. Hart made the above design/sculpture called 72 pencils. It is the kind of structure a math geek would like/make.
I think it has three axes of symmetry, but I am not sure if it really has six. It would help to see one in person; I'd appreciate a comment on this if you know
My food blog has a recipe from George W. Hart.
