proportional compasses (compasses (drawing instruments), <drafting, drawing and writing equipment by specific type>, ... Furnishings and Equipment (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Drafting tools used to maintain scale ratio when transferring proportions of plans or objects to another surface. These have two arms connected with an adjustable pivot point that determines if the scaling factor is larger, smaller, or the same size when transferring. |

Dutch ..... Tekengereedschap dat wordt gebruikt om de schaalverhouding te handhaven bij het overbrengen van verhoudingen van schema's of objecten naar een ander oppervlak. Ze hebben twee armen die verbonden zijn met een instelbaar draaipunt, dat bepaalt wat de schaalfactor is bij het overbrengen. De doeltekening kan groter of kleiner zijn of dezelfde grootte hebben. |
