Anyone remember this trick?

I remember seeing someone posted about using the bottom portion of a pen to remove adhesive build up around plotter sprockets?

I dont recall that- but a pair of nice Revlon tweezers grab those little buggers in about one or two pieces

 

[Fred Weiss]

Yes. A ballpoint with the refill removed coupled with a paper towel soaked in denatured alcohol works well. Just press down and turn to remove adhesive residue from your sprockets. Q-Tips and alcohol are also very effective.

I use a toothbrush with Iso and a paper towel.

Pen works great! I make a few cuts on the top to give it a rough edge

Thanks for all the replies! Sounds like a Saturday project!

Using a pen is a good way to remove it
