    Anybody?Tesco do one for around a euro but the compass pencil tightening mechanism is useless.Have got ultra cheap sets without compass on Ebay,just the sets squares , ruler and protractor for literally cents each but compass/full set really bumps up price.

    Would this be outside your budget?
    Only downside is the protractor which are 360 degrees with a moving part for some reason. They really confuse the students.

    We have these sets in our schools....that protractor is horrible to work with.

    Thanks for replies,would be put off by non standard protractor and prefer a 'set' that they can use in JC with 'box'.

    I bought a set in Dealz. It is a Helix brand. Can't remember the price but everything in there seems to be €1.49.

    I had the same problem as you with the Tesco sets.
