The TactiForma set consists of the following tools: 7 squares, 7 triangles, 1 rectangular L-shape hook, 5 polygon tools plus a magnetic foot, 2 spur wheels, 4 ellipses.
Selecting a tool
The square tool, the equilateral triangle tool, the ellipse tool and the regular polygon tool come in different sizes. Knowing the width of one, two or three of your fingers or the length of one finger makes it easier to measure distances or to find the right tool without extensively counting the measurement indications.
Although the tools are recognizable by their shapes and the names of the tools clarify their purposes, it is highly recommended to read the descriptions and manuals because the tools contain many more applications than you will notice at first sight. Especially the regular polygon tool deserves careful reading of the detailed description and manual, as its use differs from the others.
Shape or tool
To avoid confusion while reading the texts where the name of the tool and the shape that is created are used, the words shape or tool will be added as much as possible.
Terminologies
We introduce some of our own terminology that is applied throughout the pages, such as finger fitters, finger entrance, small-, medium- and large-sized indents for measuring and alignment.
