## The story

The Pencil Muncher 3000 sat on the teacher's desk like a throne, and asking to use it was a privilege. Push a pencil in and it screamed, vibrated the whole desk and gave back a needle point. Kids secretly sharpened crayons, chopsticks and once a carrot, and the shavings drawer was a treasure chest of evidence.

## Fun fact

Legend said if you held the pencil in long enough, it would come out as a golf tee, and several kids tested this theory.
