Introduction
Remaking anything is become very need of present age.
Copy the main design fast and precise is very important,
for such job complex CNC machine are used but these are
too expensive to buy. If copying job is limited to wood and
soft metal ROUTER COPY CARVER is the possible solution
for that. It copy the parent design very accurately and in
fast way and the mechanism simple and efficient that it
does not need any special skills
Theory
This mechanism works on the principal of relative
coordinate system. In which each coordinate of the
design is trace out exactly same having fixed relative
position
Objective
To build four bar link mechanism for four-axis copy
carver to maximize rigidity while keeping construction
and material requirements simple. Due to the unique
design of the Copy Carver you can literally operate it with
two fingers! As we guide the stylus over our original
master the Copy Carver effortlessly removes the excess
stock from our duplicate

2) Steel rod
Steel is an alloy made by
combining iron and
other
elements, the most common
of these being carbon. When
carbon is used, its content in
the steel is between 0.2%
and
2.1%
by
weight,
depending on the grade. Other

3) Slider
A linear-motion
bearing or linear
slide is
a bearing designed to
provide free motion in
one dimension. There are many different types of linear
motion bearings Ball bearing slides offer smooth precision
Working
In the four bar mechanism the two extreme ends were
connected by spindle motor and drawing pencil. The
pencil moves on the design and motor trace out the exact
copy the coordinate of the design and hence another
copy will be created
Uses
Woodcarving
Stone Carving
Musical Instruments
Cabinet Makers / Furniture Builders
Sign Makers
Woodcrafters
Intarsia
Cut Out Tool
Conclusion
This mechanism is best suited for small scale industries
and crafting. This is cost effective and easy to handle
