that the lead of a pencil,
can be made into this chain, but it can, and this is the artist that can do it, Mr.
Shiroi (@shir0003), creates these almost impossible pencil lead carvings, photographs @shiroi0003/Twitter,
he took up pencil lead carving seven years ago, after watching a segment on renowned Japanese pencil carver Toshiyuki Yamazaki on TV, as it happens there are a number of posts from how pencils are made to other pencil lead artist here, blown
away by the level of detail the master lead carver could achieve, and decided
to give it a try for himself,
over
the years, Mr. Shiroi honed his pencil lead-carving skills to a point where he
is now able to carve almost anything out of a pencil, from tiny swords,
to replicas of famous landmarks and even chains or car maker names and brands,
one
of Mr. Shiroi’s most impressive creations is a pencil lead carved into all the
letters of the alphabet, from A to Z,
it took several days to complete, and the Japanese artist recalls that by the time he reached the letter Z, he was so nervous that his hands were shaking. He managed to finish his artwork, but it was so fragile that after managing to take a few photos of it, the lead broke, what an amazing talent he has.
