I've bought these for less than 2 bucks at the local hardware store.** A: Difference is this one has a thumb screw that locks it in place at desired size. most store bought don't lock and rely on friction to hold in place which will work on paper but not when scribing an uneven surface. **Q: Whats the maximum diameter this can achieve?** A: 5 in. Radius.10 in. Diameter maximum. 2 to 3 in. Radius best working. ## Frequently Bought Together - General Tools 843/1 Pencil Compass and Scriber, 8 Inch Diameter - Simple Scribe Scribing Tool for Woodworking, Carpentry Tool Ideal for Cabinets, Countertops, Flooring, and Paneling, Multipurpose Pencil Scribe Tool for Marking (Green) - Milescraft 8407 ScribeTec - Scribing and Compass Tool --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/3220136-general-tools-843-1-pencil-compass-and-scriber-8-inch](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/3220136-general-tools-843-1-pencil-compass-and-scriber-8-inch) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-07-16*
