Polar Pen mixes high tech with low tech

Magnetic, modular pen can transform to suit your needs

Technology may have moved on from simple pen and paper, but that doesn’t mean that the humble pen is now obsolete. It’s just evolved. This former Kickstarter project doesn’t just stick a rubber bit on the end to turn it into a stylus; it’s a modular pen made out of magnets that transforms itself according to your whim. And it has a rubber stylus tip, of course, which means you can use it with tablets and smartphones.

Not just a serious work tool, not quite a toy, it has 12 neodymium magnets that stick together to make a pen that you can customise to suit your needs. And then pull it apart and start again. Hours of fun.
