Yeah I stumbled upon them years ago just looking to get a nice drafting pencil. Then I got sucked into all sorts of pens, watercolors, and wooden pencils. Maybe I’ll try out some fancy paper next (I’ll take recommendations), but I never figured I could get so nerded out in writing utensils… their marketing is on point…. It’s the write ups like this that do it.

> I've gotten interested in plotter art [...]

At first I thought it was just a typo, but there indeed something called "Plotter Art" (not to be confused with "Blotter Art", which I just confused it for).

Do you have any displays of what you were able to do?

I have been eyeing plotters for a very long time, but have yet to dive in.

A lot of uncertainty around what plotter might work for me, and what pens it would support, etc.

Look at #plottertwitter on Twitter for inspiration.

The AxiDraw V3 is a good small plotter for experimentation. It will support any pen with a vaguely normal shape. The biggest limitation of most plotters is they don't control pen pressure; it's fine for normal pens but won't work with a calligraphy pen that gives variable width strokes.

Thanks for that tag. Looks like I will just have to pick one up and experiment with pens I've laying around.

I wonder if some way to add weight along the the pen arm is possible to adjust pressure exists.
