While building my third take on a main line electric body, I decided to try using paper clips (and pieces of them) to get rough and ready pantographs. I started by taking two of them and bending the outer ends for the shoes, and then cut rods from a longer one for the arms (in conjunction with a black wire tie). Small holes were poked behind the cabs before gluing to keep them in place. Would've looked a bit more realistic if I glued two safety pins next to each other at both ends and glued the bent clips on top of them. As mentioned, the loading gauge was ignored to make them look how they're supposed to. Hoping to find better designs for future models.
