    Comments about Yardstick Compass :

    You are purchasing trammel points. Item was exactly as advertised, does not say, nor imply, that it comes with yardstick! "Turn your yardstick into a giant compass with these trammel points. Manufactured of solid aluminum, this lightweight set includes a steel pivot pin and four jaw pencil lead chuck. Pivot pin and pencil lead are centered so measurements can be calculated directly from the yardstick's markings."

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

    Comments about Yardstick Compass :

    No yard stick? Big deal, make your own. This is even better because now you're not confined to 71". Hey, just notch the end of a 2x to accept these and draw circles 40 feet and bigger. When I am done here I'm ordering a new set.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
