Working on getting my pantograph running. With some help from Jerry McClure I think I got it figured out.

R-L, Started with a heavy paper stencil. Used black superglue to rigidize the edges. Then I cut my first master. Using the same pattern I cut a shallow negative. I poured acraglass into the .125 deep negative and let it sit overnight. Then removed it and superglue it into the shallow well. From there I cut my final master. Both the positive and negative. All .125deep. Then finally cut a sample project. I would say it was successful. Looks like it was poured into the block. Now to finish the matched set if slicers.

And 12 slipjoints In 3 different styles taking shape.  Here are 4 close to putting on  bolsters and scales.
