WTB 36" or 48" Acu-Arc Adjustable Curve

[PROSTOCKTOM]

Looking for a 36" or 48" Acu-Arc Adjustable Curve

They were made by Hoyle Products Inc. in Fillmore, California

I think Covid must have put the company out of business, or something major happened because they are no longer in business.

Acu-Arc Adjustable Curve One Tool is a French, Ship & Spline Curve

Probably a long shot to find one on here, but you never know with the diversity of this group.

Thanks,
Tom

It sounds neat, I'd buy one just to have.

To to be clear you are WTB, not a seller?

Just Google adjustable curve ruler or check Office or Drafting supply stores. I found this one on Amazon.

I think the company moved to Illinois or more likely got bought out. The phone number listed has a SoCal area code, 661. Which has a boundary just east of Fillmore.

Hoyle Products, Inc.

They show that adjustable arc on their website. Not a huge range of products anymore. They used to focus on mechanical drafting, which is about extinct.

Thanks, but that's not what I am after. What I am after is made with 8 strips of butyrate plastic and the friction when bending it into a curve holds the shape.

Here's a better description of how it works.

Did you hear back from them yet?

I just called a few minutes ago and also left a message.

Honestly, I am going to be surprised if we hear back from them.

No, but I get a lot of unknown robo calls, but I also left them my email.
I will follow-up if I hear from them.

They look like for me to be a useful tool to help recreate the rear quarter curves on my 62 Darts.
