Product Description
The General Tools and Instruments 842 Precision Pencil Compass is a robust scribing and marking tool with a jaw capacity of up to 9 inches. The fulcrum spring handle makes this tool great for making contours, circles and edge mark...
It's a decently sturdy compass, will work with any reasonably sized graphite pencil (and possibly mechanical versions as well), and it makes very circular circles.
It works well enough to do what I need it to and it has a good size option.

I made a nice 6" circle with it for a couple cornhole boards and it worked.
It can draw an accurate circle provided you set it up properly and accurately
Was easy to use, intuitive w/o reading directions, and it made perfect circles as I needed
The screw and tension system hold the compass at a constant size for the most part, but the arms have too much 'wiggle' room and can give you messy circles if you put too much pressure on them when drawing
