Wondering if anyone's tried Eduard's masks for armor wheels?
If so, how were they, what are they made of, and did they work well enough? Could they be used again, or are they a one-use item?
Thanks!

From what I heard (read) is that they are somewhat "ehh" at best. You would be better off just using a drafter's circle template.
Again, this is what I have read on them thus far.

I'm with Ken on this - really!
My experience was "ehh" - but I've read others who've used them with success. I'm not getting rid of my trusty old circle template...

I'm with you guys. There just thin vinyl circles, so I'll stick with the old circle template for now

The Eduard are vinyl? I didn't know this. I've tried Aber ones, which were brass and worked great.
