3D model description

These spacers are placed at the bottom of the machine to make sure the paper is correctly spaced from the side and bottom of the machine. They are made for a DXY-1200 but the 1100 and 1300 are basically the same machine, only with some minor differences between them. It should all work the same cross-machine.

Print these spacers upside-down so that the magnet holes have a nicely flat bottom.

###These spacers are ONLY meant to be used with the vpype machine profiles:
https://github.com/abey79/vpype

Vpype is a swiss-army-knife command line tool for fixing SVG's and generating hpgl output files for vintage pen plotters.

The spacers use 6*1mm disc magnets to stick to the print bed of your plotter. Glue the magnets into the holes and sand down the bottom side of the print to make sure they sit flush against the bed. This way paper can't slip under the spacers.

The dimensions for the spacers are taken from the official manual of the Roland machines.

Disclaimer:
The spacers need to be removed once the paper is attached firmly or else the printer head might bump into them. They are designed to not cause damage when forgotten, but not every machine is equal and it might still damage yours!
