This is a pen tool for drawing with pens up to 13mm in diameter. It does not have any active components, which means the machine's Z axis can be adjusted to "lift" and "lower" the pen. This tool has a built in laser cut flexure, allowing you to increase the pen tip pressure by increasing the push distance slightly, for about 2mm total travel.
