Hacking the Brother ScanNCut Pens to Use Conductive Ink

Hacking the Brother ScanNCut Pens to Use Conductive Ink

on28 September 2015 / in Blog, Paper Computing, Reviews, Tools

  The Brother ScanNCut uses a separate pen holder with specific sized felt tip ink pens to draw your designs. I want to plot electronic traces, but Brother doesn’t manufacture conductive ink pen cartridges so Denis and I began to hack together a solution.   First we took apart an existing pen holder and cleaned both the felt tip and […]

  While at PIF Camp in Trenta Slovenia we tested the Brother ScanNCut with Statex conductive fabric to make eTextile speakers.   Denis began the project by drawing samples of the coils on his computer. Next we fused an iron on adhesive, Pellon Heat Bond, to one side of the conductive fabric.     Scanning the coil samples into the […]
