Our friend Fran has been making holiday ornaments with the EggBot and writes:

I just wanted to let everyone know that I have finally gotten to be able to use the Pilot Gold/Silver Markers.

She suggests dividing the drawing into layers so that after each layer you can take the pen out to shake it to keep the ink flowing. We’ve added her tips to the wiki page about choosing pens for the EggBot.

If you have other tips for which pens you like to use or for working with ornaments, we’d love to hear about them!
