Scott NC Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Somebody mentioned a pantograph recently and here's something I came across today while unboxing (still). I knew I had it but forgot. It is attached to the board with a copper washer and rivit. No clam shell packaging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Dad had one clamped to his drafting board, like a modern drafting arm. He kept it locked so I wouldn't mess with it WHILE I was practicing my drafting. He insisted I knew how to draw and read prints. Another home run Dad! Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott NC Posted April 19 Author Share Posted April 19 Doo dad works Billy. Back in Nebraska we used to say geegaws or just contraption. I haven't heard the lingo for it here yet but I bet it's colorful. It's just a fun thing I collected and on my doo dad tool shelves. Actually, Doodads was the name of a snack chip brand back in the 70's or 80's. You could not stop after just one unless the salt killed you.
