This is a pure circular pattern.

Round template. Nice, clean and new. I love this neon green color and it's the same size as my Alvin's elliptical. Yes. I like uniform sized templates that pack up easily. Maybe it's OCD, but I like what I like. Especially when it fits together like they were made for each other.

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Don't know

The guides are very inaccurate

I bought this template to use for drawing concentric circles. Using "quadrant" guides for each circle gives very inaccurate results, i.e. the circle is not exactly spaced from the previous circle. I've tried eyeballing, but that gives just as bad results as using guides. Very disappointed.

Pros
  • Writing and Correction Supplies
Cons
  • Not as thick as the other sets

High Quality Materials, No Quality Control

This template allows you to make circles of various sizes and is made of thin, flexible plastic for easy storage and portability. This is a green translucent material that allows you to see your work through the template. The product I received had black labels and alignment marks printed askew. This renders the quarter-align markup useless and makes it difficult to center the circle on my work. I assume this isn't a problem for most and I got ripped. If these markings are true then this is a 5

Pros
  • Stationery & School Supplies
Cons
  • No Instructions

I was tempted to give 2 stars because it draws circles but the bar seems to be set too low. exactly the centers of the circles. I even went so far as to erase all existing markings with xylene and began determining the correct bisectors myself. I've since given up on that and am now looking for a really accurate pattern. To compound this problem, many of the circles were poorly cut, leaving some of them with burrs that led to the formation of pits/bulges on the drawn circles. For smaller…
