The Safe-T Compass is easy, safe, and accurate. It features fixed radii, which make setting adjustments unnecessary and simplify circle, arc, and geometric construction work. Designed especially for safety, the Safe-T Compass is a great tool for use by children.
It draws circles from 1/4" to 10" in diameter in 1/8" increments. It includes a 4" straight edge on two sides. Use the Safe-T Compass with wooden, mechanical, or coloring pencils and most ballpoint, plastic point, or felt tip pens.

Comments about Safe-T Compass:
Simple to use but what I love best is the safety of this compass -- no sharp pointy ends! Once I show students how to use it, they LOVE these!
OK but not great - haven't go the skill of it yet
By Wanna be sketcher

you have to insert something in the center to hold it still and then it is hard to get a pencil in one of the little holes and get a perfectly round circle. This my just be a skill I have to learn but it would have been nice to have that pen point already there and just push down on it. It is great in that you can make a circle almost of any size up to the MAX of the tool. Doesn't cost much and it nice and flat for easy carry.

Great tool for the price
By Sally
from Houston, TX
Love this product! Ordered for a mandala class I teach! Super price! Only issue was that some of the center white wheels would get stuck....SOLUTION: pop out the wheel, use emery board to gently sand the rough spot on the plastic. Pop it back in, draw several circles round & round to loosen it up!
Much Safer
By SC art teacher

These are the only compasses I use with my students. I don't have to worry about sharp points in the classroom. Students can make small to large circles with ease. The only problem is that the numbers wear off of the plastic over time. The compass can still be used but you don't know the diameter of the circle.
circular compasses
By Avalon Art Studio

Some students really liked this type of compass so I don' t regret purchasing the product for variety, but the plastic is thin and flimsy, not the best quality. When you are trying to outfit a class of 30, you want the best value and a lasting product.
Best compass ever

Will never buy another type of compass again. These are the best.
Perfect for the Classroom

This compass is perfect for all ages. I use it in each of my art classes, K-12. It is durable and affordable!
Love this compass!
By Speedy

This is a great easy to use compass. Unfortunately mine went missing so I ordered a new one. It's not as bulky as a traditional compass and I can use almost any pencil or pen with it to make a perfect circle. It also includes measurements of circles you can make which is really nice if I need a specific size.
Very nice design

I bought this to draw circles on canvas, since my regular compass poked holes in the canvas. It works very well, and has a very clever design.
