Microarray pin holder
thingiverse
The holder, designed for microarray spotting pins (quill), can be mounted on a reprap device to facilitate microarray spotting. I created a gcode organizer for objects like slides, arrays, wash stations and spotting pins - Flask-microArray-gcode (https://github.com/htsrjdrouse/Flask-microArray-gcode). Initially, it was designed for an old pin and ring spotter, using quill pins (e.g., Stealth Technology pins from Arrayit: http://arrayit.com/Products/Microarray_Printing/Microarray_Pins_Stealth_Techno/microarray_pins_stealth_technology.html). Additionally, I glued hollow metal guides to help maintain a straight down direction during spotting.
