If you want to turn your Anycubic i3 Mega into a vinyl cutter/plotter, then you can use this mount to do so! Mounting it requires my universal mount for the Anycubic i3 Mega.

You need a spring that allows the drag knife to move up and down ever so slightly, in case the bed isn't perfectly level. For this, I used a hot bed leveling spring, which you can get from AliExpress (link below).

For the drag knife holder, I bought a set from AliExpress (link below), which includes the holder and several different knives. Depending on what type of cuts you want to make, the knife needs to have a certain angle.

Notes:

I printed this mount with the dovetail part at the bottom, which means that you will need some support material from the spring plate to the part where the drag knife sits (in other words, the print orientation is upside down from how you see it in the pictures).
