Artists Plexiglass Pantograph Artist Drawing Tool Reducer Enlarger Recreate Copy 10 Times Scaling Ruler

Only wish it came with directions in english, also weights for pencil pivot point. I was able to find some large washers to put at the pencil pivot point and they worked great

The metal pieces are not contained in a bag and they fell out when I opened the box. The only parts listing is on the box and it is difficult to tell if I have all the pieces which fell on the floor. I have no idea how to use it so now I must look for instructions on line.

I really like this pantograph. Like any pantograph, though, it does require a little practice and care to be able to get an accurate drawing. I am an artist and Imgotmit to help me with drawing portraits to mark off key landmarks.The only flaw I see is that the description led me the believe that it could do a one to one duplicate, but the smallest ratio I see is 1:2. Otherwise, it is pretty much what I expected.It comes with 7 extra leads which is enough to last for a very long time.The plastic arms flex a bit, but if you are aware of that and keep lifting the arms up to keep stress from building up, you can get some accirate marks. The key thing to remember on using a pantograph is that it is best used to mark key locations on your drawing with dots. Then to make the actual drawing you connect the dots smoothly. If the pantograph is used to try to make a continuous line, the stylus drags and flexes the arms and you lose accuracy.Also, I needed to tighten all the hinge joints somthat they were snug to eliminate slop. Not too snug though because they need to hinge smoothly. They all have a thin threaded nut and then a locking nut to keep just the right amount of snugness. Tighted the thin nut to the right amount and then tighted the locking nut down on top of it to hold everything in place. The pencil connection works differently. The thin nut is on thensame side as thenled holder and the locking nut fits on the other side. This gives some adjustability and allows the lead vise to be tightened properly.As imsaid earlier use it to locate and mark key points on your drawing and then separately connect the dots. Makes for a much better drawing.

Expand plans, art work sections with this tool. Easy to follow instructions, and with a little math the range of enlargement or reduction is very dynamic. Very hand in my case as I have a series of old magazines with plans that I need to extract for my hobby. A great buy!!

This product is made out a flexible material and doesn't fit the expectations.

Easy to use - just match the numbers on the arms when adjusting the set-screws for different drawing sizes, The plastic arms are light and easy to move (work slowly since little errors are amplified on the larger drawing) the plastic arms are not big and clunky like the ones made out of metal or heavier pieces of wood.
