Pen cradles for conductive ink pen plotter style 3D printer modification. a update to (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5380951) set up and other information can be found their This part is held in place by one T-threaded-post threaded into the pen cradle and one T-threaded-post slid down the printer top rail, with the threaded nut ring holding it tightly to the rail, then adding the pen cradle with the tilt head shim resting on the top edge, and then tightening it in place with the Nut. Provided is left and mirrored right sides for twin holder configuration It is adjusted into proper place by the pen cradle lower T-threaded-post in the threaded hole with point facing the slot in upright column of printer. A scaled version of the tilt head shim or other spacer may be necessary if alignment to the pen holder barrel cannot be achieved. Alignment should allow a pen sitting on the flat surface of the pen cradle to be vertically aligned to the barrel of the pen holder so the pen smoothly moves in and out of the pen holder without binding. other upgraded parts for this project: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5794788 https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5794620
