Christen is my name, letters are my game. Let's take a deep dive into calligraphy. Whether you're new to calligraphy or a seasoned scribe, this is the place for all pen people. Stick around for pointed pen calligraphy and maybe cameos of my dog.
How to Use the Ames Lettering Guide for Calligraphers
I get it. There's a lot of holes. A lot of columns. It will all make sense, I promise. The Ames Lettering Guide is a drafting tool that is used to create evenly spaced parallel lines. It's a great tool for calligraphers to use when creating guidelines for projects.

Thank you so much! I've carried this tool around with me since I was a teen in the 70's and have always thought one day I would read the instructions and understand. I was giving in one last shot today with no luck. Then I found your video. You have solved the 50 year mystery for me. I just may take up calligraphy again ;)
Thank you. I also have to use washi tape on the circle part because mine moves too easily.
I have two Ames Lettering Guides and I have to tape one of them too! Totally okay!
Good kaligrafytation
Thank you so much. Your video was very helpful. I just got my lettering guide today and was feeling disappointed because the guide kept moving while I was gliding it along my t-square. I've been watching videos, but your video is the one where I noticed you are holding the guide down with some of your fingers while sliding it along the t-square to keep it from moving.
Hi and thank you for this video. As a beginning calligrapher, I just found this tool on a few blogs. What the heck is this thing? And what does it do? Well you just answered both of those questions quickly and efficiently. AND you had a bit of a boo boo which makes this even more realistic! Thanks again.
Thank you for explaining about the spacing at 8:33. Was confused about it.
How do you lock it 😭😭😭 the circle moves on me as I move it across the page
Great question. I have one that stays put and another that moves on me. I just tape the wheel in place with artist's tape.
very nice
Omg,THANK YOU!!!!...so smiple,the Device,scared the hell out of me at first glance,and all the other RUclipsrs,made it look so complex,and were so long-winded, you summed it up so quick and easy...thank you :)
I'm so glad it was helpful. I really do use this tool almost every day I sit down to write. It's not scary! :) Thanks for watching.
Great explanation. I’m waiting for more videos.
I'm so glad it was helpful. Hoping to have more videos soon. I always have the best intentions haha!
Thank you so much! Great instructions...
