‘Six Mile Pencil’ Illustrates How Far You Have Drawn, Encouraging Creation (Ross Brooks)

Anyone with established drawing skills will tell you that it took hours and hours of practice to get where they are today. To help encourage more people to draw, and give them a way to track their progress, design agency Lyon&Lyon; has created the Six Mile Pencil. Not only does it have enough graphite to draw for six miles, it’s also got a ruler on the body that tells you how many miles you’ve drawn so far. (psfk.com)
