Roto Tape Compass | Rotating Tape Measure Beam Compass Alternative to Draw Arcs (Not 2 inches Short!)
$24.97
Features
Use With A Standard Pencil: Don't fuss with similar drawing compass tools that require you use a custom lead writing utensil. Ours allows you to use any #2 pencil.
Carry In Your Toolbox - Unlike a Beam Compass: Draw circles and arcs of varying radius' with our retractable circle drawing tool that measures just 5" long when contracted.
Use It For Variable Straight Edges Too: Just flip it over and our measuring tape compass becomes a straight edge tool. Mark your desired distance from an edge with ease.
Metric And Imperial Measurements Up to 6ft Long: Unless you need a circle drawn with a diameter larger than 12 feet, Rocksteel's rotating tape measure will get the job done.
Measurement NOT OFF by 2 inches: The tape measure measures the distance from the center point where the pin is placed to where the pencil is. Some users are thinking the accuracy is off because the tape starts at ~ 2.5" rather than 0, it is inaccurate. However, that is the distance between pencil & center when the tape is fully retracted. See Image #2 for clarification.
Details
Introducing the Roto Tape Compass, the ultimate alternative to traditional beam compasses when it comes to drawing arcs! Unlike other compass tools, our innovative design allows you to use a standard pencil, so no more searching for a special lead writing utensil. With our Roto Tape Compass, you can effortlessly and accurately draw circles and arcs of varying radius' with ease.
Convenience is key when it comes to our product.

Accuracy is of utmost importance when it comes to measurements, which is why we have ensured that our rotating tape measure compass provides both metric and imperial measurements up to 6 feet long. With Rocksteel's Roto Tape Compass, you can trust that your circles will be perfectly sized for any project you're working on.
One common misconception about our product is that the measurement is off by 2 inches. Let us clarify - the tape measure measures the distance from the center point where the pin is placed to where the pencil is. Some users think the accuracy is compromised because the tape starts at approximately 2.5 inches rather than 0, but that distance accounts for the space between the pencil and the center when the tape is fully retracted.
