Spotted at the recent Cedar Rapids Mini Maker Faire by Steve Hoefer. Looks like a piece of hardboard with a circular hole in it, lined with bike chain, to make an improvised “ring gear,” with variously-drilled chain gears and sprockets that roll around inside it to guide the pens. A similar idea was published by Instructables user hunrichs back in 2008, but I don’t think this is the same maker, and I don’t think Steve managed to get his or her name. Can somebody help us out? Who made this?

I was there (http://www.flickr.com/photos/luiserodriguez/6933152141/in/set-72157629467744527/) and it was form the folks at Art Bikes Vintage & Custom. http://newboczech.info/new-bohemia I was looking for them as well. They setup and I didn’t see them again, I want them for Maker Faire KC! Those are our info cards in the shot.
Thank you!
Thanks Luis!
(And thanks for making the trip to Cedar Rapids. It was great to meet you and all the other KC folks!)
