Alvin, 729JS, Combination Universal Speed-Bow - Set of 8

All parts are stable (they don't not shift during use) and well designed. Superb set, highly recommend. The case leaves something to be desired, but it is functional. It is hard to oversell how precise this compass can be. Points where 3 or more lines are supposed to intersect join in a single point as perfectly as I can see.

Excellent tools. My husband got them for me for my birthday, and they're much nicer than the plastic one I had before. The only reason I put four stars instead of five is because they don't come with instructions for all the parts and pieces and the point of the tool is so sharp it pokes holes in my paper while I'm drawing. But I still use them every day!

For excellent Craftsmen of Germany this was huge disappointment! !! After Adjustment it just Slips and Changes😩 Very poorly made

As advertised. What I expected. Would buy again.

Let me start by saying that I'm not a professional. I don't draft for a living. I do it for fun and for small projects. That being said, I think these tools are amazing! I keep these with me almost all the time and with my notebook in case I get an idea that I want drafted. There are some tools I almost never use, and some that I'm not sure of their purpose. But they get the job done and get the job done well. I've used them to plot on maps as well, and they did a great job with that! If you feel like doing things the old way, doing some geometry art, or just learning something new, these are the tools for you!

Great set, it's solid and seems like it'll last for years. I picked it up because I hadn't purchased the beam for my original set and found myself in need of one. The mechanical pencil included is unnecessary and not well made, but it can be used with any pencil or pen so that's not an issue. Everything else is well made and the reason I purchased it. I'm certain it'll last as long as my original set, which is still great after 25 years of use.

As advertised. Sufficiently well packed to arrive without damage. Compasses operate smoothly and generate perfect circles. A nice set.

Nicely made instruments. I am looking forward to to finally get back to my submarine model drawings.
