Timely Templates
Big Ellipse Templates

Very happy with my purchase.

I read reviews on this product that warned about the smell and I thought it was just going to be some plastic fume like when I get a new shower curtain that would go away. It's much worse than that and I think it's embedded in for life. But, I don't use them all the time and I can stand it for the few minutes I need to use them and they work great! Then I quickly shove them back in a drawer.

I mean they would work great, take up little room, and let you get big ellipses, have a axis line etc.... but the horrible rancid cheese like smell is mind blowing awful and overpowering seriously stay away. Whatever this material is, it doesn't seem safe or nontoxic at all. I've never owned a template before that smells like this..

The products worked just the way I expected, and the company is great to work with.

I've used other large ellipse templates in the past but these are the best ones, by far. This is actually the second set I've purchased because, after 23 years of owning my original set, I managed to lose my 45-degree plate. As far as construction goes, these should last a lifetime. My first set has been used a countless number of times on a regular basis and trust me, I haven't treated them with kid gloves. There's no damage to them, whatsoever, like there is with other templates I've used (and treated better). The transparent green plastic they're made from makes it easy to see your drawing underneath and I never get smudges if and when I slide them around the paper.

As far as the store goes, I used standard shipping and these arrived within a couple days of ordering. They were packaged carefully and are in perfect condition. I'll definitely shop here again because they have a better selection than other places I've found online and in my area.
