Product Description
From the Manufacturer
The 3D-Pantograph from Milescraft is a stencil tracing jig for routers that allows you to carve nearly anything you can imagine. Use the included templates and line drawings (yields carved letters and drawings from 3.2-inches to 4.8-inches), or trace anything that you can print with your computer. We find that children's coloring books provide a great source of ideas and line drawings. Universal design fits ANY router with a 6-inch or smaller base. Some assembly required. For the advanced user, this product is also capable of routing/tracing 3 dimensional carvings and designs.

Customer Reviews
I recently purchased this pantograph after trying true freehand router sign carving and considering letter stencils. What makes the pantograph great is you can essentially "freehand" carve anything you can draw on paper and because there is a size reduction from your original paper image to what's routed into wood there is also a size reduction of any errors you might make in following the pattern. This results in smooth, accurate lettering and image carving.
The user instructions are on the simplistic side and could use more detail and instruction. The biggest problem I had initially was accurately anticipating the final location of my carved image on the stock. Something that is easy to overcome with a little practice.
This is a great tool for personalizing your work. You can do 3-d accents or type. It has a bit of a learning curve and the instructions leave a bit to be desired, (no mention of the need to center the bit) but it has proven to be a great addition to my toolbox. I would sure buy it again.
