I had mentioned over in my Lithophane thread about repairing my cooling nozzle that got knocked off and melted the walls on.
I did the repair using one of these 3d printing pens, which is hand held and you can control the speed at which the filament comes out. When I first saw them I had thought that they would be pretty useless for my abilities, since I can't write my name the same way twice. However, after getting the printer and seeing minor flaws in my prints, I had wanted a way to fix them. Well, this was just the thing, since I could put a piece of the same filament into the pen to do repairs, even use it to join small parts together that were printed separately. It has proved to be $20 well spent.
