Mechanical Mistake Eraser: A Reliquary for Eraser Debris

This piece was started a while back in an automata workshop with Michael Croft hosted by Arizona Designer Craftsmen. It celebrates all the hard work and indecision that goes into designing a piece or drafting a document (before the computer). It takes a lot of effort to make that eraser debris and so I deem it precious... or maybe I just wanted a magic machine to erase all my blunders, mistakes and errors that I have made over the years.
