Ship curves... Where to find them?

[ErikG]

:confused:

Does anyone know? I know I can get some from YDS, and Charette also has some. Does anyone know if there are any European outlets for these things?
I mean Copenhagen ship's curves sounds pretty Danish to me! Not to mention French curves...

Polarity, Gades, DavidG does anyone know?

Thanks

I'll be interested to see what the answers are here too - the only sets I've found available here in Oz cost an absolute fortune

Charrette http://www.charrette.com/ is a great company to buy drafting supplies from here in the US. Also Reprint / Draphix http://www.reprint-draphix.com/

http://www.reuels.com/reuels/product21019.html

I used some of the curves as in Larsson;

Linex A11-29 (useful)
Linex A12
Linex A13
Linex A17
Linex A 3 (very useful)
Linex A2 (useful)

For a spline I use some plastic curtain track section!

I inherited a large collection of them from a relative. His speciality was west coast 19th century merchant vessels. I can't part with them but would be willing to trace /whatever any that might be of interest.

www.linex.dk as you may have guessed.
A complete set from Linex is probably more expensive than having one shipped from MacNaughton.
