3D-printable Pen grip and tail cap designs*
Microsoft partnered with the disability community to design a variety of grip shapes, allowing you to personalize your pen. Choose from conical, bulb, and marker shapes, each available in different sizes and with the option to add texture for a better grip (available for conical or bulb shapes). You’ll also be able to select a unique tail cap that works best for you.
3D-printable design files will be available soon.
Make sure you select a pen grip and tail cap designed for the type of Pen you’re going to be using. Some are designed for the Microsoft Pens, and some are designed for the Surface Pen.
