  • I badly needed to make a lot of permanently legible labels for my pigeon hole storage boxes, and this pantograph did the job perfectly !

    Liked this one and can imagine many uses. Also I think you could sell pdf plans for this. Since the hole positions are critical I was thinking by drawing it in CAD at one to one or actual size the users of your plans could print out the plan in an inkjet printer and then adhere or paste the printout to the aluminum stock, thereby obtaining near perfect registration on the hole positions for centerpunching and drilling.

      Sounds like a good idea, policedog4030, but I have no intention of selling plans for it, although you are welcome to if you like.

      Very kind of you, I noticed the 267,000 views and thought even if just 10% bought your pdf plan download file it might be worth your while. The "Make once, Sell Many" principle; a win win for both buyer and seller even if you sold them for a dollar or three or thirty - still a deal for someone who wants to make the project.@@confabrication

    Genius idea using the milling machine. I have a pillar drill, which wouldn't be as precise, but still might be accurate enough.

      If your pillar drill has a big enough table to accommodate two vices, you're good to go !

    Great idea Sir
    So you made your own master letters from stencils? That is great if you did because those letters are expensive by themselves.

      Thanks, Phil, - yes indeed, I used old kid's stencils as the proper letters were too expensive

    hi brian
    great idea, is it substantial enough to engrave on brass sheet

      Yes, Mr Factotum, the pantograph itself certainly is, but you might need a better cutter, ideally H.S.S. Also you would have to proceed a bit slower of course.

    I'm thinking about adapting this design for a pantograph for my powerplasma cutter. It will be great for cutting steel designs.

    Mr. Davidson, buen día, saludos cordiales desde Chile, agradezco su muy buen diseño y alta eficiencia lograda con su proyecto de pantógrafo el que realizó deseo hacerme uno similar ya que he tenido el mismo interés hace mucho tiempo y al igual que usted tenía la idea de hacer algo muy parecido y no había visto su video y me sorprendió la similitud, gracias por compartir su experiencia y desde Chile mis respetos

      Thankyou, Francisco, for your favourable comments all the way from Chile. Maybe you will make one now !

    Can I use something like this for my Everlast plasma cutter?

    • @confabrication
      @confabrication  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I don't see why not - although it would take a bit of work. Seems like an idea worth considering.
