ALVIN drawing compasses span a massive range of sizes, applications, and uses. Our traditional beginner and intermediate level compasses are sure to find themselves right at home in any geometry or art class. Our professional-level compasses are the perfect precision tool that any engineer, draftsman, or professor needs to add to their collection of drawing instruments. These metal drafting compasses can make precision circles from 1/8" up to 22" in diameter with added beam bar.

ALVIN compasses are made with German precision engineering that allows for the precise and consistent drawing of radii. Made from quality materials such as zinc alloy, ALVIN drafting compasses are sure to last the test of time. The more advanced models, such as the 205V and the 975K, have adjustable knee joints for rapid adjustment and even greater ability to draft with accuracy. Kits with pencil adaptors allow for the attachment of a drafting pencil, pen, or marker. Add one of ALVIN's model 958 spring blade pencils to your kit with a pencil adaptor, or buy the model 505V kit to take your drafting abilities to another level. This pen is finely honed to create precise lines with India Ink.

The hinge is plastic so it's not a highly precise instrument. The tips did not perfectly align so I trimmed/sanded the long one down about 0.5mm and now it's perfect. It's inexpensive so I would purchase again because I love the size and it's more robust than the 100% plastic ones. I use it for art pencil drawings.

I bought this ALVIN Academic Proportional Gearhead Divider for measuring proportions and angles for when I draw. I can’t attest to the longevity of it, but I can say that it appears to be well made, and works exactly as I hoped it would. It holds itself steady at the measurement I have it in until I move it. The very tips of the top are very pointy and sharp, so take care to keep it away from curious littles. I will probably buy a second one to put in my traveling art kit.
