Tracing jig for tracing objects

Tracing jig that works for taller objects and ensures smooth and somewhat accurate tracing.

-Ensures the pencil stays at a consistent angle and distance from the object.

-Can be used either on tall or short objects.

Tracing up to 100mm height.

Notes for inserting pencil.

There are numerous designs of classical pencils so it's up to you to play with scale. It's impossible to design one jig that fits all.

-If the pencil is too loose then use a tiny amount of tape and try the fit.

-If the pencil is too big then you need to scale up the model just a bit or use a smaller diameter pencil. (use the build in ruler in Bambustudio for accurate scaling) The model will scale nicely.

-The fit should be snug and should not prevent the pencil from moving freely

For the jig to work the tip of the pencil should go just past the jig bottom line (jig will be raised at the pencil tip very slightly)
