Pantograph

[carbonsteel928]

Hello gents, any idea where one could pick up a reasonably priced pantograph? I'm starting to number all of my razors and stencils just don't do it justice and my engraving abilities are most lacking.

Thanks in advance.

Ebay Search Hermes Engravers

And spell it correctly in your search-pantograph.
Look for a New Hermes "GM" model. It's the most common model. You do not need the motor, as they will not rotary engrave steel. All you need is the diamond drag cutting tip.

I've also seen them listed as "Engravograph" or "gravograph", I think that's what the manufacturer calls them.

Thank you all. And thanks Bill for the spell check.

Gravograph is the company that purchased New Hermes.

Pickings seem to be very slim.

Just keep searching Ebay for "engraving machines." There are always a few.
Like everything else on Ebay, some people want ridiculous amounts. The GM usually actually sells for $200-$300.
Then you need the type sets, which usually go for $75-$125 per set.
