Thanks for the video, I saw one at a thrift shop, I may go back and pick it up.
I used one in the 70's
In the architects office that I worked for , there was a lady who did all of the LEROY lettering on the working drawings . At that time the drafting medium was linen and then mylar..both were abrasive wore the leroy pen down to a nub….sapphire pens came along to remedy the situation. I have a complete set if anybody is interested.
Chuckle, I had one of these lettering sets and after about a week with it I decided it was a lot easier just to learn how to print. The bow compass and pen you show were simple and useful devices.
MRP kitni hai
We making it out twilight with this one ☝️
The sound it would have made to have a room full of people using those quickly would have been so cool. We have lost so many sounds that people never thought anyone would want to hear in the future.
Dimana saya harus membelinya?, susah dicari 😢
I recently acquired one of these (mine also came with multiple rapidograph nibs and holders), but I had no clue how it worked. My father was an engineer, so I've long been a lover of drafting tools and materials; however, although I've used technical pens most of my life in my art, this kit was somewhat mysterious to me until I found your video. Great tips about drafting pens and compasses too! Thank you! 😊
I love these gizmos. Would this be used for drafting illustrations?
Very interesting tool.
"Designed for fast writing…." Not to insult you but this comment gave me a chuckle.
about 30 years ago my brother and I used to do HVAC designs and plans by hand. My brother had illegible hand writing, and as a result he bought a leroy lettering kit. It was incredibly slow process. I was faster with the tool but faster still using freehand lettering. As soon as I could purchase autocad and a pen plotter I jumped at the chance. Somewhere I have this tucked in a drawer along with some slide rules and other tools to pull out in the post apocalypse
Hi Fran, thank you for this video. Clearly it’s not your first rodeo on that scriber! I ran out and got one… WHAT a mess I made! Hoping it improves.
HOWEVER… I miss much of your video without CC. I can’t watch your others either without it. 🙁
