For Boxcar Base: Megills Flexible Gauge Pins on Ebay

For the photopolymer printers, there is a set of three Megills Flexible Gauge Pins, on ebay. They’re made for use under the gripper and they are great for use with Boxcar base.

I use these. They work great.

We use them, too - and, we sell them. They work great…

- and, they *cannot* be crushed, use no adhesive and can be easily re-positioned, so they are infinitely re-usable.

These pins solved the “crushed pin” problem over 100 years ago - and solve a common problem today as well.

- and they retail for less than the ones that were sold on ebay….
