Compass Staedtler Mars Comfort 552 02 Quickbow With Extension Bar
Compasses are drawing instruments that are primarily used to perform the tasks in geometry - to draw a circle around a point and to transfer distances precisely. These versatile drawing instruments essentially consist of two legs. These are usually made of metal. The legs are connected together at the top by a hinge, allowing them to move flexibly. Compasses also have a crossbar at the upper end where the legs meet with opposite-running threads. Compasses with a spindle guide have a wheel in the centre that can be adjusted with one hand. You can turn this in different directions to spread or close the legs. This allows you to quickly and easily adjust the compass to the desired position. There is also a needle at the bottom of one leg to secure the compass to a surface. At the end of the other leg, there is a replaceable lead for drawing circles or segments on paper. There are also models with an adapter for attaching a short pencil instead of the integrated lead. If you secure one leg to a surface, you can then determine the radius of a circle by setting the distance of the second leg. Staedtler also offers practical sets that are specifically aimed at children starting school. Depending on the model, these consist of: Compass, Sharpener, Eraser, Pencil, Set squares, Ruler, and Protractor. If you are looking for a compass set to draw mandalas, you are sure to find the ideal solution in this category. Staedtler offers practical mandala sets that contain a quick-setting drawing compass along with the right accessories to create fantastic patterns, including drawing pencils, fineliners and lots more.
