Global description The triangle with 30, 60 and 90 degrees corners is referred as the 30Triangle. The main purpose of this tool is to create three dimensional shapes. When the three corners of the triangle are set to 30, 60 and 90 degrees respectively, it is known as a ‘1/2/sqr(3) triangle’. As a given, the three sides always have these proportional lengths. For practical reasons, the longest right side (sqr(3)) of the triangle tool is …
Global description The shape of the protractor makes up for a half circle with a radius of 7 centimetres. In the middle of the straight side a 2 centimeter wide semi-circular hole is located. In here an arrow head points down to the centre of the circle. Six differently sized circles are provided scattered around the top surface that serve as templates.

The CircleFrame includes the ZigzagTriangle, the 468Triangle and the wedge tool. They are only applied in combination with the CircleFrame frame. For the CircleFrame see the section:02 CircleFrame frame To apply the tools inside the frame see the sections:03 Zigzag triangle04 468Triangle05 Wedge tool For even more applications see the section:06 More ideas
Global description of the circle frame The actual frame of the CircleFrame has similar dimensions to the TactiPad (28 cm by 37 cm). The thickness of the frame is four millimetres. Near the outer edge of the frame, oval holes can be found to place the frame in one of three positions on the TactiPad. For an off-centric position, two additional holes are present on both sides near the circle. To description sectionTo manual section …
Global description The size of the ZigzagTriangle is such that it fits exactly inside the 20- centimetre diameter of the circle. The three sides of the body of the triangle have different patterns. The middle section of the triangle is open. The inner sides have the same patterns at a smaller scale as those along the outside. The ZigzagTriangle is also called a ‘Christmas tree’.

Global description The 468Triangle is an open triangular-shaped frame with a width of one centimetre. The number 468 refers to the steps required for the triangle to return to the exact same position in the circle; four, six or eight steps respectively. Beyond this, it serves as a template for ‘home-made’ templates. To description sectionTo manual section Detailed description The corners of the triangle are pointy so they fit in the indents at the edge …
Detailed description The wedge-shaped drawing tool has a rounded edge that matches the curve of the circle in the CircleFrame. This rounded side covers an arc of 45 degrees. Near the rounded edge, grooves at intervals of six degrees (one minute) are located. A little further away from the edge, a hole is present. Two sides of this tool end in a flattened point. One of these sides is straight and ends in a very …
Rubber bands spanning the diameter Indentations are placed around the outside of the circle frame, in which rubber bands can be attached. These indentations are positioned at every 10 degrees, seen from the centre of the circle. Slightly wider indents make the positions for 0, 30, 45, 60, 90 degrees, etc. easily recognizable. When spanning between opposing indentations with a rubber band, they meet at the centre, also forming the diameter of the circle.It also …
The GraphGrid frame Detailed description The GraphGrid frame is yellow with a thickness of four milimetres. It is placed on the TactiPad like a picture frame. Eight oval holes in the frame fit around the knobs of the TactiPad to hold it in place. Three of the four corners are rounded. Along the inner edge, small curved hooks are placed at a regular interval of 1 centimeter. Along the outer edge of the GraphGrid, indentations …
Hyperbole; tool to draw y=1/X Global description The global shape of the tool is a rectangle hook with the curved contour at the inner side. Pushpin markers are provided at the top surface. A small square for alignment is left out at the lower left corner of the tool. By nature of the formula, the tails of the tool become very thin. To maintain the sturdiness of the tool, additional material has been added. the …
