4 inch Spring Bow Half Set centre screw adjustment, with interchangeable needle, pen, and pencil points Price 17/6

The Centre Screw Spring Bow Half Set of Compasses, as illustrated, possesses the advantage of COMBINING IN ONE INSTRUMENT THE SET OF THREE SEPARATE SPRING BOWS hitherto in use, while the centre screw makes for ease and accuracy of manipulation, at the same time providing a radius of over 2 inches, or double that of the old pattern.

This instrument is less expensive than the set of 3 bows, while considerably stronger in construction.

The fixed needle point is shouldered.
