Combination cap and work support system

An improved multifunctional cap, comprising:

• a plurality of substantially identical operatively-connected segments, each of which comprises:
• an upper surface forming at least one elevated support element selected from (a) a raised ridge, and (b) an apex;
• a peripheral border operatively connected to the upper surface of the segment and comprising a generally uniform base portion for resting on a work surface;
• and
• at least one stability element for stabilizing the segment when the segment is disposed upon the work surface, the at least one stability element comprising at least one selected from a central sunken location and a sunken linear panel, wherein the selected at least one stability element is sunken to a depth that generally corresponds with that of the generally uniform base portion of the peripheral border;
• and
• at least one substantially linear radial seam disposed between individual segments of the plurality of operatively-connected segments.
