5.0 out of 5 stars French Curve Set, March 3, 2008

By	S. Rasheed "Perpetual Student" (West Coast, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

As an algebra student, I like really neat graphs. This set makes all the difference for me. The individual curves have sufficient variety to cover all the variables, and the material they are made of is thick enough so they will not break easily. I think this is a great set, reasonably priced, and a necessity for any higher level math student.

5.0 out of 5 stars I don't know if I'm using it right, but they work great!!, April 20, 2009

By	Charles S. Holzheimer "durnik150" (Centennial, CO) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I needed an economy priced set of templates to help my design of woodworking plans. I was browsing around on Amazon and happened upon this set. Hmmmmmm, good price, good variety...what the heck!!
When I received the order I was thrilled! This set comes in a cardboard box which may not last too long but I thought they would all be wrapped in shrink-wrap and sent out. That was the first sign that this was a great bargain item.
All of the individual templates have a great feature that I didn't appreciate until I used it. They have a raised center edge that runs completely around the template. Kind of like a piece of bologna sticking out from between two slices of bread (pretty good huh?). This ridge keeps the template from interfering with the line and prevents all sorts of marks on the template itself.
High marks also go to the decision to make these templates fairly rigid. I ordered a batch of other templates at the same time and they bend and flop, sometimes while you are using it. Not these! They are substantial enough to withstand pressure as you draw and do not scoot out of the way.
I'm sure drafting students, design students, and design professionals could put this set to a much more rigorous workout than I ever will but I think they are great and are exceptionally designed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Erotica at its best, July 31, 2007

By	A. Russell "Thoreau" (On parole...) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

These curves... what can I say about them? Each one reminds me of the soft, supple lines of so many loves lost. They're durable too! And that, my friends, is a rare combination indeed.

Nuff said
