Sculpture proportional dividers

Hi Mike and Allan,

I thought I'd add my 2 cents worth. Here are a pair of dividers I made specifically to copy from fired clay scale to wet clay scale, about 12.5%. They will take inside and outside measurements. The wood is basswood model making stock from an art supply store. Length: 23 inches. Maximum measurement: 23.5 inches.

Same principal as your divider examples, just larger and for 3-D work.

Conceivably, although I have not tried this yet, these dividers could be used for painting from a live model/sitter, either to copy in direct scale, or 112.5%, or 88.8%.
