Pros & Cons
Pros
Works great on larger circles then smaller circles say under a 2 rad. Actually a gift to my 19 yr. Old son. Good for making precise arcs on engineering paper.
The pencil holder is sturdy, allows for lots of adjustments, and will accept a slightly larger pencil. Setting is crisp and tight. Pencil can be removed to make a very good caliper.
Cons
The finish on it leaves something to be desired. The most glaring issues are to do with the pins that hold the adjusting screw. One of the pins has a large burr from when the hole was drilled.
Highlights
Quality
Easy tool use with our without pencil and the adjusting screw holds accuracy well
They are very sturdy and hold the set distance very well while you scribe
All of them had either mechanical too small or kids plastic compasses
Very tight metal screws mean high accuracy
Price
It was more expensive than this and it was very inaccurate due to the plastic screws
Shipping
It came so fast and its all that it described
Items arrived packed well for the shipping and as described on amazon
The compass arrived in two days but upon opening i found that the top pin was missing
My order arrived ontime and packaged with care
Competitiveness
Works better than the compasses i have purchased at other stores solid and accurate
I bought this to replace a compass that i bought an an art supply store which had a plastic screw to attach the pencil
I actually have several similar ones and thought it was more versatile than mine
