Octopus cable tidy

Lay eight charging cables in the arms of an octopus

A desk cable tidy shaped like an octopus. Each of its eight curling arms is a channel that holds the end of one charging cable, and the body holds whatever is plugged in. The arms point in every direction, so cables leave the desk wherever they need to.
