Enlarging picture tool?
Does anyone remember how to make two pieces of wood using moveable join that held a pencil on one end and the other end was used to trace over the picture you were trying to make much larger? I can see it in my head but I cannot translate it into a working object, darn it!!! Both ends moved if I recall correctly...Cheers to a healthy and happy memory making year to all.

YES!!! The compass, pentagram is precisely what I am looking for. Yahooooo. Graphing would not work on side of the house so I am very fortunate that I am part of the Hometalk people. What a grand sort we all are. Thank you, very very much.
Hi Linda,
What you are looking for is a Pantograph I believe. I think they can be purchased cheaply - Toy shop or online............Good luck!
