Abstract
The present disclosure provides a sliding adjustable compass having a support for holding a variety of marking and cutting implements which can be easily replaced when they are used up. The construction of the compass is such that large diameter circles can be marked or cut precisely with the help of a viewing lens, whilst maintaining portability by a modular design.

- and
- a central body having a tip element, an aperture configured to slidably receive the measuring element, and a viewing lens aligned with the aperture such that a marking of the measuring element is viewable through the lens when the measuring element is in place in the aperture, the marking thus indicating a distance between the central body and the support.
