Pen holder with BL Touch mount for conductive ink pen plotter style 3D printer modification an update to https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5380951 set up and other information can be found their This part is held in place by two fan cover screws on the left of the extruder (Ender 3 pro, or similar metal hot-end cover), it holds the pen in place while printing. Two bottom caps (print twice, one needed for each side) are to adjust the pen tilt as it travels across the printed surface. It was designed so the pen body would pivot on the top and bottom cones and vertically float once the pen tip hit the surface, allowing for better locational control. Care should be taken to inshore the barrels are tightly placed in the vertical position by applying force on the screws. A weighted string held to the inside edge of the barrel seemed to work well for adjustments. Readjustment or calibration of the software offset from the hot end to the pen tip may be necessary after making these changes. other upgrades to this project are: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5794788 https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5794737
