Don't remember reading this post when it was originally put on the forum, its one thing I have never tried with the cnc & probably never will, being a signmaker & having a vinyl plotter that is actually designed to work with pens as well as blades I don't have the need to use the CNC :lol: :lol: :lol:
I rarely use the one I have but find it handy for marking where the double stick tape goes on sheets of styrene, pvc, dibond, etc. when cutting out a number of shapes for certain clients. I always try to avoid the bit cutting thru the adhesive :roll: .

I have the widgetworks pen that works great. It uses a sleeve and a weight to let the pen slide up and down so no mashed points.
