STAEDTLER Mars Professional French Curve Design Ruler Set for Pattern Making, 3 Essential A B C Shapes, Blue Transparent Plastic with Inking Edge

High quality, aqua marine transparent blue, French curve, design templates. I am proud to have thesedesign aids. I use them daily.

These french curves are a cut above the competition. Made in Germany, with very nice edges that don't have any bumps or irregularities. If you buy cheaper curves you will find little bumps and imperfections that require a piece of fine sandpaper and some time. These beat out the Alvin french curve set (also made in Germany) very slightly, with thicker plastic and more pronounced inking wells. Prefer the color on the Alvins, but the material and precision of these curves is top notch.

Best price anywhere.

Well made

Packet is supposed to come with three pieces; only two arrived. Only a flimsy round sticker keeps the items inside the otherwise open plastic envelope. I’m guessing one of the rulers slipped out and was lost forever. Oh well. The product itself is nice enough. Thick blue plastic rulers seem sturdy and good quality.

I used these to create a template for 8 S-curved legs for two end tables I recently made.

They're just what you'd think! They're well-made with nice, smooth edges. The holes in the center, too, give you more shapes to trace, but even better, they're easy to hang up on a nail. I actually like using these more than my metal hip curve, because the sound of a pencil being dragged across the metal edge makes my teeth hurt. These don't make that gross sound-feeling, and they're lovely and slippery -- very easy to use.

Appreciate their quality.
