Hi I have a small engraving pantograph for marking signs.

Copied a trace from paper, It turned out fairly rough and is Ok for a small
board without IC.

This is an exercise of great care, one slip and bingo! Start a gain.

I was wondering if anyone has tried using a pantograph for making a pcb. A
larger scale image could be printed out on paper and traced using the
pantograph to make a smaller size on the pcb. A fine tip magic marker could
be used as a resist or maybe just printing directly using conductive ink.

It is sort of a low tech way to do it, but it would provide another option.
