With the current discussion on Scissors crossovers I thought I would post this box file of an EM gauge 1 in 8 Scissors I designed some while ago in an earlier version of Templot. I have updated it for the current version and it might just save somebody a bit of work.

Nice work

Just a suggestion, should the 4 checkrails (2 at top and 2 at bottom) be combined into one checkrail at the top and one at the bottom as shown below?

Hi Phil.
Generally no, they would be two separate standard length check rails, but I have seen it done this way when they are close together.
Regards
Tony.

Idly perusing the Templot site I was interested to note that the box file with this original thread has now been downloaded 200 times. I wonder just how many of those have actually inspired someone to build it.

Seems to be a few more downloads now!  I didn't use your box file, but I have built a scissors using a Templot plan - see below.  Oh, that isn't camera lens distortion, the entire thing is built on a curve!

Hi Paul.
Yes, very nice. Using functional chairs too.
Still a ply and rivet man myself.
