I have a pantograph which I rarely use because I can’t get a steady line
tracing. What am I doing wrong? Is it just a matter of practise?
I have a great drawing of a dragon that I’d like to be able to reduce for making
into a piece of jewelry.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

How big is the dragon?? . . Copy machines, blueprint companies for
reduction, . . . Photograph then enlarge/clean up, etc.

Are you using a tracing pattern or following by hand (very tricky to do
well). You could get a magnesium or photopolymer pattern made at a print
shop, costs about $15.00 last time I had it done.
