Axidraw V3 A3 - Paper Holder

thingiverse

As a regular pen plotter user i was tired of laborious process of alignment/page setup before each drawing. Particularly as my plotter did not have a permanent home, so it was being moved around the house regularly. So i created these two Canvas/Paper holder clips that attach onto either end of Axidraw V3 A3. Creating an easy and reliable way of locating your paper. This means the paper is always in exactly the same location without any effort. The only variable is your pen thickness. (As the diameter of the pen will impact the centre of nib). However its easy to factor this into your design software, or inkscape. For example when using Uniball UM-153 Pens, I move the design 1.5mm right, and 1.5mm down. Disclaimer: I use the A3 sized model, I assume these will clip onto the smaller models, but i cannot confirm if the dimensions automatically scale for A4 paper etc. www.craftedbycode.com
