With the discount code 100OFF the Sovol pen plotter SO-1 is available for $99 with shipping from the US.
The construction and hardware is related to a 3D printer and even more to a laser engraver. You could convert the pen plotter to a laser engraver if you get a laser module just like you can convert a laser engraver to a pen plotter.
The device can be used to create individualized gifts or artwork.
There are detailed instructions both for the software as well as for the assembly of the device available on YouTube.
The main software one would use is Inkscape, which is free and open source. The generated GCODE files can than be transferred via a memory card to the plotter.

You think those signature "experts" on Pawn Stars would know that I really didn't have an autographed first edition bible signed by "JC?" My friend is also inquiring....

Not sure about the plotting software it uses but were the gcode file to be made with the intent that the motion commands included 'pen stroke' like movements... Then yes it could be used to make handwritten-looking pieces... I HIGHLY doubt that the software they use with this machine will generate files in this way... Its default plotting software will probably just draw things in a series of lines/dots much how an inkjet printer works.
