2D Pen Attachment - PRINTRBOT SIMPLE METAL

thingiverse

This simple printed part makes it possible for a Pilot G2 pen to be attached to the printer so two-dimensional pictures can be plotted directly on a piece of paper. The part is threaded specifically to fit a pilot G2 pen. When inserted upside down, the pen benefits from the spring, allowing constant pressure on the paper even if the bed isn't perfectly level. Since the part is threaded, you can simply adjust the pen's pressure by turning the pen top.
