Thank you Tom,
I like the idea of using new technology to make a copy of 150 year old technology.

An inspiration - and another stunning implementation Bob. Thanks for sharing (and challenging). I'm sure this will be an effective lure...

I needed two jobs to complete the project...
An adapter platten to enlarge the drawing paper capacity to 8.5 X 11 when needed.
And, an adjustable pen counterweight arm. This is used to balance the weight on the pen, which allows the pattern to trace longer.
