Description I've discontinued these on my website, but I left this photo here in DA because they're still cool art pieces.

I made these drafting triangles (30'x60' and 45') new (to look old, of course) with a dark cherry stained wood, and black wooden inserts with the classic Victorian webbing. These are 11" tall, great as a wall hanging for Architectural & Engineering offices, stage props, or just have around the house.

Classic & elegant Victorian design

Thats a good idea, maybe if they were smaller on a large-ish frame too

I really like these. They remind me of my grandfather's tools. I especially like the cherry stain.
