Just what I needed and received

I used this product to restring my drawing board with its parallel bar. I am doing a major remodeling on my 3-flat and need to make drawings that show the dimensions for the new kitchen cabinets. It has been over 30 years since I've used this board and with this product I'm able to use it again.

For someone that still draws the old fashion way, it's good to know that someone still sells the parts that I need for my drafting board.

The wire I received was about half the diameter of my original wire that broke. It would have been nice if you could include directions for installing it. Fortunately I was able to find an old video on YouTube that showed how to install it. I got it installed and its working fine.

I looked high and low for the right parts to fix my Mayline, and this was the only place I found them. The price was very reasonable too. As well, they offer many hand drafting items that us luddites still like to use, and it's nice to see someone still values the business. The only thing I would have added to the package are the small black knobs needed to loosen the parallel bar. But all in all, a great value.
