This Epic Compass has inspired me so much and I love its Quality. Circles are one of my favorite shapes. And I feel completely at full expression when I start to draw with this beautiful instrument to help my art grow. It has accelerated my spirit to be creative while still staying my true self. This is a remarkable invention and I highly recommend it to anybody that is into the arts of drawing.

Works as advertised. All aluminum so does not bend, break, or deform like thin plastic templates. Adjusts smoothly for drawing crisp lines. I use it for marking tile cutouts for plumbing fixtures. Enables you to go over pipe standouts for exact hole location.

As a design consultant, everything from knowledge and reputation to reliability and presentation help clients determine who they’ll be partnering with to accomplish their wildest and lifelong outdoor living space dreams! This eye turning tool, that I use daily, together with its practicality and portability, makes for a great addition to anyone who seeks a high quality device, who doesn’t compromise in design or functionality! I highly recommend it!
Mario Manns
I have several other templates with graduated circles, this one is better. Not only is it beautifully made, the circles are superbly machined!
Quintin Barba
So elegant and precise. Beautifully crafted and well made. Highly recommend.

Since COVID, I have moved my home office to my shed (my kids run the house) and I schedule “learning time” every day with my oldest son Tommy. If there were ever a silver lining to the dumpster fire that is 2020, it is the amount of time I get to spend with my family. Tommy and I spend an hour in the morning learning (number, letters, etc.) – but we do it in the context of making/doing things – and listening to good music at volume – super proud that he loves Led Zeppelin. We have 3D printed a few things, molded pewter, built rockets, etc. – and he has taken a great interest in aeronautics and space. In any event – he is 3 – and is still developing his vocabulary. Drawing/painting with him helps him better express himself to me. With that said, the Iris box sits at my workbench and has quickly become his “favorite tool” – (can't wait for my [his] ruler!). I guess the apple doesn’t fall from the tree – I love it too: form, function, elegance, and just generally cool gadgetry. You guys rock – please keep making more tools.

Stunning colour and feel. Great weight and good grip on the base! fantastic tuning to diameter too. Absolutely love it. Looks fantastic standing up on my desk and have made many friends jealous.
Negatives (really nitpicking):
-The numbers have a slight "shadow" on the outside where I assume the cutting tool had marked, this is very very faint.
-When iris stands on base, it is a little rocky and tends to lean forwards with the weight of the brass on the front.
Overall, love it. Recommend it to anyone who does lots of drawings or even just wants a cool tool to show off!

First, this is not something that you need. But if you appreciate the finer things in life that are well made, then I highly recommend this.
It is both a great showcase piece and functional. I love how much heft the brass brings. It is easy to use and the updated design provides the needed grip to change the diameter.
I would have liked a little less resistance when changing the diameter but that’s a minor gripe. I’d recommend this to anyone looking for a nice piece to add to their brass collection.

Ever since the invention of the compass there has been an issue with the compass point. Some surfaces you don't want to marr... and some (such as glass) you can't stick a point in. That problem was partly solved by circle templates... sheets and sheets of plastic with circles of various sizes. They're okay but, apart from the need to have an almost infinite supply, each template is a fixed diameter so the circle you get is often a compromise between the exact diameter you want and the nearest to it you have. You can, of course, use a compass to draw out a circle you want on a sacrificial piece of sheet material, cut that out as neatly as you can and use that as a template. But now you don't have to. Finally, several thousand years after the invention of the traditional compass, The Gift Of Sunshine has invented an infinitely adjustable template that can be set to the exact diameter you require and can be used on any surface.
Okay, it isn't cheap. But a lot of engineering goes into making this possible and the high price is more than justified by the build quality, the finish and the sheer beauty of this remarkable device. The precision engineering and attention to detail is second to none.
Yep, it's left me £40 poorer... and a device that solves over 4,000 years of compromises richer.

Got this as a present for my husband, who loves good tools, works with them, and has some from his grandfather still - because good tools last. This one is beautiful and I expect our grandchildren will want it some day.
Farah Windham
Though I do drawings and wood shop work every day the Iris is more of an inspiring piece of sculpture than a tool for me. However, I've only had it for a few days so we'll see.
Nola Chatfield
Not only does it work perfectly, but also it is wonderful object to own and hold. It is so well made
Luana Carmouche
After inadvertantly purchasing a cheap version, I was put on the right track by the guys.
What a difference !, it's like comparing cheese and chalk.
I now have the genuine iris, and am looking forward to many happy years of usage.
Thankyou to everybody at The Gift Of Sunshine for their help and friendly service.

Can't believe how beautiful it is, how simple to use and how clever you all are to make it.
