Helix Oxford Set of Mathematical Instruments Box

Took a while to come, the container is flimsy

I have wanted to own a set like this at a cheap price but I have been disappointed. The set is old, it has all marks of serious wear. All rulers have scratches on them, compass is rusted, the whole frame has depressions in it. All parts had dirt, it looked like they were scavenged. Am sending this shit back for whatever cheap price it is, don't buy. Am pretty sure some other buyer would receive this used stuff.................. just not me, but my time has been wasted anyway.I am a honest reviewer with more than 20 product reviews, that is 1/3 of what I have bought on amazon.

These were a good deal. Mostly because I ordered 11 and they sent me 5 more for free. Excellent! There is no shipping break for buying multiple sets. (hint, hint, Big Dog!) I am buying for an orphanage, and the extra sets really helped me out!I wanted the clear ruler, protractor, and angles, because I remember they were easier to read when I was doing this years ago. I noticed other places that reviewers said the metal compass and dividers in this set held up well and stuck well in the paper. The metal case contains a 6" ruler. The overall size fits perfectly in the small Bazic pencil pouch, and still accepts a calculator, pencils and pens.http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00275ED2W/ref=oh_details_o04_s01_i00(The pencil pouches in bulk are also an excellent deal!)A word of caution to teachers, these math sets came with Psalm 66:18 on them. It's on a sticker on the back. "If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me." So if you don't want to see that, you will need a bit of Goo-Be-Gone. Not all educational institutions are going to be happy with that, I am thinking. They also have kid-related coupons from the Bahamas inside.The sizes of the ruler, protractor, and angles seems super convenient for high school math. The metal compass and dividers have a screw to help them hold their setting. I wish I had had these when I was in high school!Overall, a good deal, fast shipping, and nice bonus from this company.Thanks again, Big Dog!

The product is as described, but the seller put an annoying religious sticker on the back that took 15+ minutes to remove. I didn't appreciate the contamination of my purchase.

The storage container does not close all the way. It is rusted and filled with many visible bumps and scratches. I did not receive the product advertised. The product is advertised as Helix Oxford but I received a Dunbar Oxford product instead. The instruments are cheap. I would not recommend this product.

I would NOT buy itREALLY cheaply madeand will break unless you are very delicate about it which i think i was but ehNot for me this one

excellent

Very old kit seemed to have been used before and the compass does not work properly]
