6 Inch Adjustable Lockable Steel Divider Wing Leather Compass

Nicely engineered piece of kit with a great, spring loaded mechanism. All metal, locking nut and thread. Nice and sharp. Plenty big enough for my leather making work. Adjustable and accurate. Interestingly, the tool is great but I needed a fork lift, a blow torch, a submarine, an old priest and a young priest to liberate it out of the plastic packing. I "enjoyed" doing that so much!! Thanks.

Great heavy duty Calipers, Exactly what I wanted

Not sturdy, too flimsy for scoring sewing lines on leather, kept as a spare

5 star

does the job with leather as wanted some for marking up and marking sewing line. Just over 7 1/2 inches in actual height but easier to handle and hold. My only Cavet is that will have to keep eye on them and clean them as they will probably rust if left lying around for a time. The mechanism is stiff but just squeeze together and can easily adjust bolt, better stiff than loose and not keeping ficked space.

Whilst I am sure there are better built dividers on the market. I only needed a divider to mark out dovetails evenly and didnt want to spend a fortune. These do the trick very nicely. Tip: coat the dividers in wd40 when you get them as I believe these are made of mild steel and are likely to rust if not kept coated. Overall very happy with my purchase. Would recommend

Top tool 2 have

The adjusting screw threads are misaligned, and the whole adjustment/locking part is very wobbly, making accurate sizing difficult.

VENI OXIDADO DE LA PUNTA, LA PUNTA NO VIENE BIEN AFILADA

Ok

Très déçu, les pointes ne sont pas alignés et les manches sont tordu

Very good leather marking compass. The dividers are not supposed to line up! One is slightly offset so that it can run along the surface of the leather while the other sits slightly lower on the surface the leather is sitting on, that way you are less likely to slip and make an unwanted mark across the whole leather. It is designed to mark the edge of the leather just inside the perimeter where you are wanting to mark a stitching line. Those who are giving negative reviews saying they do not line up must not be using them for the same purpose ? I am very happy with the quality of this item and I used it on a scrap piece of leather and got perfectly straight lines each time, it is super easy to use and adjusts for more than what I will need it to. This feels like a sturdy and durable tool. I am glad I did not base my purchase decision on the negative reviews. If you are into leather crafting I think this item would be great in your leather tool set, especially if you want it to make a nice, clean stitch line.
