Description of NPW W4083 Hypotrochoid Art Set

Set includes 2 hypotrochoid templates, 1 red, 1 blue, and 1 green pen and instructions. Packaged in a handy carrying tin. Hypotrochoids are mathematical designs created by a point in a circle rolling around inside of a larger circle. Create wildly different patterns with this classic and absorbing art set. NPW toys and gifts surprise, delight and most of all make you laugh

Disappointing Hypotrochoid Art Set

After I put it to the test, this art set left me feeling disappointed. The stencils were flimsy and difficult to work with, and the end result just didn't look professional.

Pros
  • None
Cons
  • Flimsy stencils, lackluster output

I would buy this a hundred times

OH. MY. WELL. This was bought as a stocking filler for my 13 year old, but everyone in the house (3 younger brothers, 1 older sister and both parents) keeps taking it to "play". It's as much fun as I remember when I was a kid. Good design, lots of size options for a pretty tin. The price of these sets can be very high so I was happy to get this set even if the sizes are not as big as I would like. I would buy it a hundred times. Almost everyone has fun with them. In earnest.

Pros
  • Art sets
Cons
  • Some bugs

Poor quality compared to Spirograph

The design and quality of this set doesn't seem as good as some of the Spirograph sets I've used for decades. Opaque gears make it difficult or impossible to see the lines you draw, so it's hard to tell when the full pattern is complete. There's an eyelet on the frame gear that the other versions don't have, and it only seems to get in the way when you're trying to get the gear out of the frame. There are 6 gears included, but there are only 3 different sizes (I love it when you lose…

Pros
  • Picture
Cons
  • Line is shorter than other picks
