DrawlR - The Universal Pen/Pencil Mount for Ender 3 V2 NEO

Introducing DrawlR! Your new drawing robot upgrade to your Ender 3 V2 NEO.  You will need 2 Zip/Cable ties to secure your pen or pencil. 

NOTE: Though you can use a pencil with this I would recommend you to use a pen as the lead in the pencil will wear down.

HOW TO GET THE ART

To get the art you can use some of the many 2D art on Printables or Thingiverse. If you choose to use these you will have to use the Cut tool in PrusaSlicer, and make them 0.2mm thick. Now if you want to create your own art to print you will need to export as an .SVG. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE NO BACKGROUND! Once you have your .SVG go to Tinkercad and click Import. From there select your art and resize it to your liking then export it to PrusaSlicer. Now slice it and Viola! Your 3D printer can now draw and write for you!
