Am I crazy or is this a bug? Do I need to waste some stock

You need to make a spring-loaded ballpoint pen holder and a
platen to hold a piece of paper. That's what I did when I
was first figuring out cutter radius offsets.
See section 3 here :

(I used to have a few paragraphs and drawings in there, but
it seems to have been removed. But, what is there conveys
the same info, I think.)
