The Nicpro 20-piece set is a high-utility academic kit that bridges the gap between basic school supplies and professional instrumentation. A key feature of this set is the inclusion of three different mechanical pencils (0.5mm, 0.7mm, and 0.9mm), allowing users to create a proper hierarchy of line weights in their drafting. The kit also features a geared center-wheel compass, which helps maintain radius stability much more effectively than standard friction-based models.
The tools are constructed from a combination of anodized aluminum alloys for the compass and high-impact polystyrene for the rulers and triangles. This combination provides durability where it's needed most while keeping the kit lightweight. Everything is organized within an EVA-foam molded carrying case, which prevents the tools from rattling and protects the compass needle during transport. This set is highly recommended for students in intermediate drafting or architecture courses who need a reliable and comprehensive kit.
For a simpler set that is more appropriate for primary school students, the Fiskars Plastic Geometry Kit is a durable, kid-friendly choice.
You can find more high-tier drafting and math tools in the ruler and protractor geometry sets category.
