These dividers will scale up or down
with a high degree of accuracy. You
could use a ruler and a calculator to
work it out, but proportional dividers
will do it for you automatically. By adjusting the joint, you can
set the tool to any transfer ratio from 1:1 to 1:10. The distance
between points at one end is in the chosen ratio to the points
at the opposite end. The dividers have other functions. They will
divide the circumference into equal segments, from 6 to 15. Using
the GS mark gives the ratio of 1:1.618 hence GS for Golden Section.
The mark Square Root 2, gives the length of the hypotenuse of
a right angle triangle with two equal sides, or 1:1.414. This is an
invaluable tool for transferring scale. Use for drafting, technical
drawing and chart making. It has a passivated-chrome fi nish with
stainless steel points. The overall length is 185mm.
A handy little cutter which will produce tear-free cuts in a variety
