LANCE FIELD GUIDE

Full-Scale or Half-Scale L-Square?

L-squares establish perpendicular layout and support pattern drafting. Choose full-scale or half-scale workflow and confirm both arm dimensions and unit system.

Make the choice in sequence

Is the work full scale or half scale?

Choose full scale for full-size pattern and layout work. Choose half scale only for an intentionally reduced drafting or instructional workflow.

Which long-arm and short-arm dimensions are required?

Compare both the long-arm and short-arm dimensions; a single nominal length does not fully describe an L-square.

Which unit system is required?

Select the unit system used in the work and verify the exact calibration and arm dimensions in the variant table.
