Circle Scribe Disc Compass
This is not just any old compass. It is a disc compass.
When I first saw it I didn’t guess what it was for. My mind was blank. I knew it could draw 100 circles in 3 minutes because it said so on the label but that was about it. At first there was a bit of confusion as to what is supposed to go where but all I had to do was place the point that was in the centre of the disk on a flat piece of paper, place the point of my pencil in the desired hole and rotate the compass.
By placing a sharp pencil in the 20mm hole I could draw a circle of 40mm diameter (20mm radius). This compass can draw any circle up to 100mm to an accuracy of plus or minus 0.5mm. It doesn’t slip, it’s easy to use and fits into my exercise book nicely. Around the outer edge of the compass are four small holes in which you can use to draw circles of 1, 2, 3 and 4mm radius.
It makes drawing circles fun and not irritating.
