Mechanical Pencin: A website about the hidden engineering in everyday objects

Mechanical Pencil is a website created by mechanical engineer and artist Bryan that features illustrated tear-downs and engineering breakdowns of everyday products like pens, lighters, and toy cars. Each breakdown involves disassembling products, creating CAD models, and producing detailed animations to visualize how common objects work. The site blends engineering and art to help viewers appreciate the hidden mechanics behind items they typically take for granted.
