Julius Caesar pencil holder


Impractical (note the hand required to keep it upright), but clever.  Via Reddit.
Within moments, the entire group, including Brutus, was striking out at the dictator. Caesar attempted to get away, but, blinded by blood, he tripped and fell; the men continued stabbing him as he lay defenceless on the lower steps of the portico. According to Eutropius, around 60 men participated in the assassination. He was stabbed 23 times.

  1. Sand (or other sufficiently heavy material) could be placed in a void at the base to weigh it down.

    1. It looks like it was just quickly whipped up on a 3D printer for the humor and some quick internet "likes," rather than something they intend to use long term. But, that would solve the problem though it would be quite a weighty pencil holder; it could double as a paperweight though.
