My version of a gondola (penholder) for a simple vertical plotter. See also the bead chain gear in my objects.

There is also a slightly more complicated v4 here:

These models (and some electronic stuff) are all you need to build your own vertical plotter. Sandy Nobles (creator of Polargraph) great Instructables is a good point to start:

This is iteration 3 of the gondola. Far from perfect, still a work in progress.
Features:
- Bead chains can be fixed with M3 bolts
- Pen can be fixed with M4 bolt
- Enough place to glue servo for pen lift
- M3 hole for counterweight at the bottom (M5 would be better, could use M5 nuts then as weight)
You can see some more pictures here (text in german, sorry):
