Book 3 — Pencil Holder for Workbench
Reading edition
Mechanics, and others who have occasion to use a pencil on a workbench will appreciate the pencil holder shown in the sketch. It was made by soldering the small brass ferrule into the bottom of a portion of a brass knob, and weighting the knob with lead. The pencil will be held in an upright position where it may be easily seen.—Contributed by R. F. Hoffman, Chicago.
