Rose for Unicorn Pen Plotter

thingiverse

Merlinjim's Rose can be drawn using a hatching pattern to fill in weighted lines with a fine-nibbed art pen such as a Pigma Micron 3 or 1. To recreate this work and match the original illustration, you could try a multi-pass version with delicate touches using a brush pen for varying line weights. Schmarty's Inkscape Unicorn extensions are essential for this piece, along with calibration test images to fine-tune settings. Additionally, grab Eggbot Inkscape extensions and use dnewman's hatch fill extension for quick and elegant solutions to filling issues like this one. Ensure proper positioning of the gcode on your build platform using a sticky note or larger paper. Adjust timings in the SVG file to ensure the pen is properly down on the paper before drawing and lifting at the right moments during the print process.
