As a maker, I'm constantly looking for ways to maximize the utility of the gear I use. Why should any tool have only one purpose? This simple print will instantly improve the form and function of a standard fine point Sharpie marker. Take measurements and mark your material with a single tool. 

 

These print just fine with default print settings. I printed mine at 0.1 mm layer height with a very fine fuzzy skin (0.1 mm thickness/0.3 mm point distance) and they turned out great. Cut the clip off of the Sharpie cap with a pair of flush cutters, then add a dab of glue to the inside of the top and bottom portions of your 3D printed sleeve before inserting the Sharpie. My glue of choice is Gorilla Super Glue Gel, but use whatever glue you prefer. Let the glue dry and you're all set!

 

If there's demand for it, I'll be publishing an imperial version and an ultra fine point version of this design, as well as a version for multi-material printers as club exclusives for my Printables Club Members. There aren't many of you, but I seriously appreciate the support!
