    Attachment Instructions?

    Does not hold larger radius when trying to make an arc. Comes with accessories but no instructions on how they attach(probally not an issue for a pro)

    compass is fine, but your service stinks

    the service I got from your online store was terrible, I was lied to, treated like an idiot and you have lost the customer

                  • Q:

                    We bought one of the compass set - the Straedtler Arco compass set. Where do you buy the extra tube with the lead for this compass. The store in Montgomeryville, PA doies not carry it. The empolyee said that he guesses that you would need to buy a new compass.

                    Please let us know as our son will be going to college on 8/20.

                    Thank you.

                      Lead size is 2 mm, HB. We unfortunately do not currently carry this size lead at this time.

                      You can buy 2 mm leads in any art store. Tom
