My point is still valid - the graphic method holds one set of lines equally spaced and varies the other where a true Mercator both Lat and long spacing get wider as you goe north ( or south ).
Sorry for my mistake.

That's incorrect, a Mercator chart holds the longitude scale constant and varies ONLY the latitude scale.
