      Patrick's work shop Thanks. In all honesty it's a bit unwieldy. A beam compass is a much better desgin!

    I made one like that, you need a lock mechanism to really fix the position, otherwise it will give you many problems while working with it.

    I didn't realize til halfway through that this wasn't the type of Compass I was thinking of.

    Pedantically speaking, it's really a pair of compasses...
    ...heh heh heh.
    Really nice though, they're like the ones my teacher used in primary school to chalk circles on the blackboard.
