    Default pen adapter --sharpie or HB regular pencil

    a friend machined out a 1/2 shaft adaper fits right into the router collet
    its spring loaded with about 1/2 play ,the pencil or sharpie is held in with a set screw
    The body is brass and the 2 inserts are plastic to house the pencil or sharpie
    I called it the king pen adapter

    Nice one.

    Strangely enough (or not) they still make pen adapters for commercial machines.
