    Has anyone developed or seen a pen holder idea for use on there router. My router was intended for use making foam cutouts for lost foam casting. But i have seen sites were people have made a pen holder to make there router act as a plotter. If anyone has or knows how, please post. I would like to know what makes a good design and what is needed gcode wise to make it work. Thanx.

    Any sign supply will have the plotter pens. I use them for proofing layout on paper ,to show client, before comitting to a large job . To hold pens above link looks pretty cool.
