What happens here

Take your framing square and place it against the two magnets. One leg of the framing square should rest against one magnet, while the corner (the 90-degree angle) of the square should rest against the other magnet. Hold the marker firmly against the outer edge of the framing square's corner. Slowly pivot the framing square, keeping both legs in contact with their respective magnets, and trace the curve with the marker. This will draw the first half (a semicircle) of your circle.

Goal: Complete the first half of the circle

Tools and materials

  • Framing Square — Guiding the marker to draw the circular arc
  • Marker — Drawing the semicircle
  • Welding Magnets — Acting as pivot points

What they say

Hide

magnets are 8 in apart. And yes, they are. So, now go ahead and take your framing square in there. And there's one half or quarter, I guess. Start back at the top. Okay, now to do our bottom, we're going to take the magnets and we're going to put them on this side of the line.
