How to use it - Important notice
Press fit, just push the pencil making sure it makes contact with both set of prongs. It may scratch the paint on the pencil a bit.
The extender needs at least about 1.5 cm of pencil for the plastic prongs to grab on. The rest of the extender is hollow.
I'm still testing this, at the moment it is working for me, but if you push hard on the paper there's nothing stopping the pencil from falling inside the barrel. I don't know yet if the press fit will lose strength over time.
Feedback is appreciated, if needed I can upload different inner diameter to strengten the contact points between the extender and the pencil.
How to print
To function properly this should be printed standing vertical on the build plate with no supports. I suggest using a brim to avoid it from dethatching from the build plate.
