RBE 0 Posted February 7, 2020 I just got the software downloaded. Everything is ready to go. Except. Im using the pen tool untill my vinyl is delivered on tues. My question is. How do i adjust the pen tool? I tested it a few times after "hitting it with a few different sized hammers" but nothing ive done or looked for online has worked. Can someone with experience please help a young cutter out? Please and thank you.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slice&dice 2,450 Posted February 7, 2020 RBE, congratulations on getting into the game. Give us something better to work with, OK? How about a video? How about letting us know what you have (equipment/Software)? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wildgoose 4,200 Posted February 8, 2020 Explain the problem you are having with the pen tool. What model of cutter did you get and what software are you using with it? Some use a felt tip pen others use a ball point. Typically the down force is adjusted to put the correct force so it writes but doesn't smash the tip. The offset will go to zero because pens are centered without the castor action of a drag knife blade. All good practice things to learn how to do and congratulations on entering the fray and also on taking a little time to learn your machine before you break a tip or worse by trying to cut without knowing your machine. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
