Awhile back I promised you a demo of the Mathias Wandel Pantograph.

 

Well I ran across this PDF of our October Woodworkers club NewsLetter where my cousin Paul ( builder of my pantograph)  and I did a presentation on it. He explained the build, and I did a live demonstration. It is about half way down the pdf.

You don't have to sign up,Dave, you are welcome to go to our web site  http://www.nwwoodworkers.org and look at and down load the news letters. They go back many years, I have belonged for going on 12 years now , Paul took over the NewsLetter about 4 years ago, and does an exemplary job writing it up. He was an engineer tech writer before he retired.

We appreciate the compliments , and response to this thread.

 

Thanks ,guys.

Herb

I dabbled with Pantographs for a few years. I started out by modifying a Hermes engraver. Everything kept coming out catawampus. Then I built one from plans off google. Still catawampus... So I made one from my planes. Now everything come out square.
