Holder to mount a silhouette cutting plotter blade (drag knife) on a Mendel90 3d printer, to use the 3d printer as a cutting plotter / vinyl plotter.
Might fit other printers as well. Meant for SILH-BLADE-3-3T, fits on extruder mounts that are meant for Wades block.
(So a Wades to Silhoutte converter?)
Set slicer to 1 outside perimeter, no infill, z-lift on retract and retract on minimum travel. Set z-offset so blade touches/presses on flexfoil/flockfoil/whatever you're plotting on. Put a piece of non-corrugated cardboard between printbed and foil to protect the blade and the bed.

Notes:
Rotate the flat side to the bed before printing.
Should friction fit the blade, so maybe test-print a few layers first to see if it needs any scaling (or filing, or tape).
