Simple Pantograph
Description
A pantograph is a four bar linkage based on a parallelogram that scales the movement of a point by a set factor. For the sake of simplicity, the design is non adjustable but I have included linkage files for scale factors (SF) of 2, 3, 4, and Pi. After putting the design through some tests, I found the margin of error to be consistently under 1%. <b>Hardware</b> 10x <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B078GJNDNR/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B078GJNDNR&linkCode=as2&tag=e3dservices-20&linkId=1c2dd87ae56d28920453afe08e21ee76"> M3 x 8mm*</a> <b>What to print</b> 2x Link_1 1x Link_2 (2x for SF of 2) 1x Link_3 (0x for SF of 2) 1x Base 1x Base_Pin 1x Base_Pin_Cap 1x Pin_1_Base 2x Pin_1 2x Pin_2 1x Pin_2_Short 3x Pin_1_Cap 3x Pin_2_Cap 1x Support 1x Pointer_1 (for joint closest to base) 1x Pointer_2 _*Affiliate Link_
