A pantograph saves drawing time when enlarging drawings. Simple to set up and ideal for children as well as adults. A must in any art studio
By far the best tool for forging signatures with an actual pen
lmao
Excellent video! I'm going to get an inexpensive pantograph and take photographs of buildings and make paintings of them. I knew it could be done. Thank you very much, you just created an artist.
good luck with your building paintings. Please post them on our forum for my feedback
@@PaintBasket Where can i purchase an inexpensive Pantograph?
this is the one I know of that is reasonable and good quality: paintbasket.com/go/pantograph
@MrJohnnybobs two reasons, it's easier to hold the pencil and you then can lift the pencil up and control the pressure of the pencil on the paper
Need one of these to modify to work with my powerplasma cutter. That would be pretty cool.
I finally know how it works, I never learned it when I was small. Thank yoU! ^_^
It would be helpful if it were made of clear plastic.
Fuiste Thank you
Merci pour votre démonstration. C’est clair.
This has been very helpfull, many thanks
When I had one, as a kid, I would hold the pointer, and trace that over the picture, as that is how it was done in the TV advert!
You can do it that way. Kids are taught that way around because their eye hand co-ordination isn't that good yet, but you sit with the problem of having no pressure pressing down on the pencil so doing it the other way around is better as far as that is concerned.
@@PaintBasket True! I would put a couple of metal nuts on, to hold the pencil down.
Great demo! Love it! Thank you sir.
you're welcome :)
thanks you for helping us
Thank you for this tutorial. It's so helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
I want to build a pantograph for my everlast plasma cutter. That would be really cool.
sounds like a fun project :)
great. thank you.
I was kinda confused on what was going on until I saw the other part touching the smaller picture
Thank you so much for this tutorial 🥰
You’re welcome 😊
Amazing!!!
It sure is :)
Quiero saver como se a justa el Pantogeaph ..Won to now how can I set the tools on the table..Thank Your
Different brands of pantographs attach differently. Some have a clamp that grips onto the table. Mine has a block so I use some Blu-Tac to stick that end to the table.
great
I like it
What would be more precise is to "follow the lines" directly on the photo. And the pencil drawing the lines would be moved automatically. And not the contrary.
you can do it that way, but I have found that the pencil marks are often too light as there is no pressure on the pencil, hence the reason I move the pencil as opposed to the pointer.
PaintBasket
Ok i understand. But there is still something I do not understand: it is difficult to see the pointer with precision. ?
I actually put some magnetic weights rubber banded on top of the pencil and do as the comment says. :)
Hi I feel this tool very good,where they sell these?

You don't need that tool. There is a MUCH easier way. Take a pic of the picture with your phone or scan it into your computer. scale it as big as you want it and print it out.Then cover the back with charcoal rub it in with a paper towel. Turn the picture face up and tape the corners to your drawing papper so it don't move. get a mechanical pencil and trace over the image It will transfer the image onto the drawing pepper. this is a quicker and more accurate method
Quicker and more accurate, eh maybe.
But definitely not any more cost effective.
Roy Boy right but you cannot modify the size
@@royboy3129 That sounds infinitely slower
How do you know where to put the pantograph?
I usually put the "stick down" part on the edge of the table then trial and error the image and drawing paper by checking the four corners of the image to ensure they fit well
how to get same saize drawing sir?
the pantograph has several settings for different sizes, including a 1:1 option
whats the song playing at 7:20 ?? really cool looks like japanese instrumental
it is a song built into the video editor I used at the time. The software was called Pinnacle Studio, so unfortunately couldn't look it up for you now, sorry Luis :(
this is very easy
ゼルダリスキングZeldoris Zeldris LOVER HERE TOO😍
Can you make an enlargement to a 16 X 20 canvas?
you can enlarge in increments, so if your picture is proportional, then it will enlarge to a 16"x20" canvas no problem
Thank you.
i take it you can see more from your angel mate, as from here i cant see how you can follow the lines with something in the way
that is correct, you can see my head is to the side so I can see the pointer on the pantograph perfectly
What if you're right handed?
depending on the design, some have reversible pins making them work for left and right handers. Other designs have a left and right hand model.
Thank you.
how do you know that number you put it on ?
the number is the amount of magnification you want so 1 is a 1:1 redraw, 2 is a double size, etc.
Might be even better if you made the whole thing (or at LEAST the part over the image) of clear plastic so you could view the tracing scribe better and anticipate which way to move. Just sayin...
i thiught you controlled it from the original point then the scale up point drew itself
you move the pencil so that you can control the pressure on the paper. You don't however look at the pencil as you draw, you look at the pointer on the pantograph, which is on the reference photo.
клас
guess thats what he means by drawing magnifier
Ronald, yes, I would call it enlarger (Pantograph) as that is what it actually does,
although a magnifier does that also. I personally would not call it a
magnifier but the trade name was used, nl, "Wonder Art and Magnifier".
