While not as sophisticated as a 3D printer, 3D pens offer an artistic way to create custom parts. To make objects with a 3D printer, you use a 3D model file (e.g. STL), but with a 3D pen, creating objects is a manual process. You can use a 3D pen template or stencil to make drawing a model easier.
In this article, we have listed some of the best 3D pen templates and divided them into categories like animals, vehicles, and more. For each template, we have described the complexity and features of the design.
Before we begin, it’s worth noting that the templates don’t always contain all of the individual parts. We’ve highlighted where you need to deviate from the template using the term “free drawing,” which refers to creating some design features yourself. Enjoy!
