Fantastic lightbox
Added by BooSexton on 06/02/11
The lamp glows brightly, and I think it throws the light across the entire surface evenly. I also didn't notice any hum from the light.
Anyway, I'd say this is invaluable for any artist or crafter, and whilst it might be a small investment for a student, it's durable and portable and I really wouldn't be without it.
A great buy; I'd definitely recommend it.
Good, cheap tracer

The Artograph Tracer is a good bit of kit for the money. Very bright, very portable. The bigger than A4 tracing area is very usable.
Perfect for tracing

I use mine for tracing embroideryapplique and it does a great job - no complaints. Nice bright light which shows through the fabric and compared to my old system of a lamp under a piece of glass between two chairs it's great!
Excellent Product for Crafters and Artists

You can use it as an aid for tracing and for stencil embossing.
It's best used in a darkened room. The light will then penetrate even mirror card and dark coloured cards. I was very impressed.
It's far superior to my old light box which I bought for about £12 and was frankly a waste of money. This one is a lot sturdier and great quality. I'm very happy with it.
Does what it says

I'm so glad I didn't opt for a cheaper version (of which they're are many around). I bought this on the strength of seeing it in store as I'm interesting in hand-drawn animation, and wanted to have a pop at it myself. Aside from this, I know it'll have many other applications as I have experience in graphic arts, and after attempting some tracing it does the job superbly. Theirs also a nice little area to house your pencilstools so they're not left on your desk.
With regards to the light, it's a very nice output.
For the price, this is a very good unit. With it's grooved under-side for ease of carrying, energy efficient bulb, and large spread, this is a whole deal better than the cheap knock-offs at half the price.
