Taytools 468310 Large Adjustable Trammel Head Set Beam Compass, Pencil Holders, Hardened Points

Well made. Sturdy. Can use a bic type pen or round pencil.

These are High Quality Tools that will last a lifetime!

Don’t let the picture fool you they are very well made.

These make a solid beam compass as big or small as you want. Pencil fits in perfectly, and they have a good weight to them

These worked flawlessly. Endless diameter options from 3-4inches and up. the heavy metal construction made it easy to use without it coming out of place on either side. I recommend this to everyone. Go for these more expensive metal ones.

There are great!

Top notch trammels. Stout and sturdy.

I am rating these in comparison to the Starrett Trammel set priced at $120. (I’m not being paid to do this.) Some pro drafters my see this review as blasphemy (haha), but this my honest truth. I ended up purchased both to compare! I’ll now be returning Starrett’s and keeping these. First off, there’s no question Starrett’s are more stunning and superior in detail… without question. However, Starrett’s would NOT fit any standers size drawing implants. This product DOES! It also fits a standard X-Acto blade handle, which now seems rather large in comparison to the ability of Starretts. All parts for this product are made from metal and feel very sturdy. A great value at just over $20. In some reviews the clamps only go down as far as to secure a 3/4” rod, however when I received mine they went as far down as just past the 1/4” mark… you can see in my product review image. Additionally, Starrett’s version of anchor point rods taper down and to the side of the rod, which make them uncentered. This is so users can offset the anchor points by twisting the rods while in place. Personally I don’t want to do this, as I don’t want to fuss with offsets ever time I draw or cut a circle. I made a few circles with this product and found them to be very precise. I’m very happy with this product and highly recommend. My only complaint and suggestion is wipe these down with a dry rag or paper towel as soon as you take them out of the box! They are covered in grease! Probably to keep them from erosion. This may be against the manufacture’s recommendation, but if you want to keep your hands and workspace clean from grease marks/ stains… do it! Great item.

Worked great.

This tool is heavy duty, not made of cheap plastic. I was impressed the moment I opened the box.
