Hmmm, not so sure
Whilst this is a decent enough set, when you come down to using it, it is clear that most of the expense is due to the tin, which is very nice.
The protractors are fine and work well with clearly defined degrees. Then there is the stencils, it’ll do the job but not for very long; the stencils bend when using them, which is obviously not what you need.
The other bad pont with this is the compass which holds the pencil but only when tightened to the point where you wonder if either the pencil or compass will take any more before breaking.
If you’re looking for replacement protractors and a nice tin, go for it. If you want a full set which will last go elsewhere as this won’t see the year out.

Essential piece of kit
I too bought this item as an adult deciding to take a GCSE in Mathes. As many other people have commented; it contains everything I needed to complete the course. Definately a good buy.

Just perfect
I got this as I’m an adult who’s gone back to College and I’m doing a Maths GCSE course. This set has got everything I need to use for this course and is excellent value for money. It was also delivered very promptly too.
