Teardrops n Tiny Travel Trailers

I dont know how many of you all get ShopNotes but in this issue under tips is a conduit compass & router trammel. Using electrical conduit and couplings this guy made a Router Tammel and compass. Looks like it could be very usefull tool for TD building

Any pics?

Sounds like it could be a little wiggly using pipe even if it's 1" galvanised. My router trammel setup is 1/8" x 3" aluminum with an aluminum fin on top, got it at Boeing Surplus. With 3 sections hooked together I can do a 25' radius with no wiggly at all. Danny

I made one a few years ago out of 2 pieces of 3/8" steel rod... It will do up to a 6 foot radius (12' circle) with the rods I've got. I had to do a 6' round window frame for a church stained glass window... thus the tool. Was really not hard to make, and the nice thing is many routers have a pair of 3/8" holes built in the base. I use an older DeWalt plunge jobbie for it, but others will work fine too

I dont have any pics of the article have no way to do that just looked like a good idea to me.

Howdy Reddiver What issue was that in?
Thanks Mike

It is issue 95 Sept. / Oct. page 5. I just got it a couple of days ago.
