Silhouette Cameo 4 adjustable pen holder

The Cameo 4 adjustable pen holder is coming soon to the Chomas Creations store!  It adjusts to center most gel pens (the ones with the squishy grips won't fit you will need the adjustalble marker holder).  I got these Gelly Roll gel pens at either Michaels, Joanns or Hobby Lobby and of course you can find them online.  If you ever want to center a gel pen and cut in shadow this is your way to go.
For gel pens I slow down the speed to 3-5 and lower the pressure to around 10.
I love the look of the chalky gel pens on Kraft cardstock.  You can preorder the Cameo 4 tools here... Chomas Creations

More info on the Brother Scan N Cut precision tip

Brother Scan N Cut Chomas Creations precision tip answers! Have questions ask here and I will edit this post to answer the rest for a go to for people trying it out! I'm still learning the machine a bit so be patient and if you know the answer please help out  My kids are still on Christmas break here lol!
Which machines will it work in? Works in the entire line of Scan N Cut machines
What can I engrave on? Anything that fits under the rollers. You have 2 mm clearance on the CM and 3 mm clearance on the DX. I say if it fits I'm going for it.
Acrylic, aluminum, jewelry blanks, give it a go!
What settings do you use? I've been copying and pasting my design on top of each other in the software as the way to multi cut. I use a slower speed around 4 and a pressure around 8. Make sure you select draw in the software and draw on the machine. Also when it asks for the correct tool in the machine go ahead and hit ok!
They are in stock now and shipping! Can't wait to see what everyone does with them

Chomas Creations precision tip in the Brother Scan N Cut

Etching on cuff bracelets with the Chomas Creations precision tip in the Scan N Cut. The cuff bracelets are flat and can fit under the rollers on the machine and you bend them after. They are from ImpressArts and are at craft stores and online.

This will work on all machines. I filled in the font as it was an open font and then duplicated my design 3 times in the software so it wouId multi cut. I set my design to draw instead of cut in the software. I changed the settings on the machine to draw and increased the pressure to 8 and set the speed to 3.

Using the Chomas Creations precision tip in the Brother Scan N Cut to engrave on acrylic! I got this piece and the light at Craft Chameleon. I attached the acrylic piece with double sided adhesive to keep it in place.
I did send the etching design over using the draw function in the Brothers software. I did a multi cut of 3 by cutting and pasting my design on top of each other. If anyone can tell me an easier way please do  I set the speed to 4 and pressure to 8 and again sent it on the machine as a draw.

Chomas Creations adjustable pen holder on wood tags.

I found these wood Recollections brands tags at Michaels and found they fit under the rollers on my Cameo 3 and thought why not try drawing on them with gel pens? And guess what? It worked! I added some of the Gelly Roll brand gel pens to the Chomas Creations adjustable pen holder and drew the Christmas design on my tags! I'm adding them to gifts for a little something extra !!
This was super easy and quick! I used some double sided adhesive to keep the wood tag in place and it popped off easily!
