Description
I bought an old seam allowance marking tool from Prym. You can see it on one of the photos. This gave the basic idea to create a similar holder for the Clover Chaco Liner marking pen.
The seam allowances you can choose from are: 10,15,20,30,35 mm
You can see on the photos that you can add a screw to the pen clamp if you prefer. For me it wasn't necessary atm, but you never know :-)
(The pictures show the old gear design, the one you can actually download now is much better.)
Printer Brand:

Printer:
Kossel
Rafts:
No
Supports:
Yes
Resolution:
0.2
Infill:
60
Filament: Noname PLA Light blue
Notes:
The parts have not been oriented for printing already, so you have to lay them down properly in your slicer.
You should print it with at least 50% infill for a better overall stiffness. I had to add a brim to the baseplate, because it tended to warp slightly.The only part that needs support (from build plate) is the handle bar.
Take a close look at the clamp (see the detail photo). The hooks aren't the same in size. If you look on the baseplate from above, the smaller hook is on the left side, the taller one on the right. That makes it really easy to loosen the clamp, change the seam allowance position and reattach the clamp.
You don't need a screw. Just use a small piece of filament as its axle. You have to rework the holes just a little for a nice tight fit of the filament piece. See the detail photo of the gear with the yellow filament piece already fit into place.
It is a tight fit, but glue it into place - take a look at the detail photo. The sligthly rounded corner has to point to the back of the handle bar.
This also is a tight fit, but you should glue it into the base plate. See the photos for more details.
