Apparatus and a method for drafting a framework for a pattern

1. An apparatus for drafting a framework for a pattern, the apparatus comprising:

a generally rigid planer structure;

means for enabling scribing a center point of the framework and rotating said rigid planer structure about the center point;

means for enabling scribing marks on opposite sides of the center point for forming a basis for equally spaced linear lines about the center point in the framework, where the marks are scribed with said rigid planer structure at a fixed position relative to the center point; and

means for enabling scribing a circle for the framework where the circle is scribed by rotation of said rigid planer structure about the center point.

2. The apparatus as recited in claim 1 , further comprising means for pivotally securing the apparatus for rotating about the center point.

3. The apparatus as recited in claim 1 , further comprising means for enabling determination of dimensions of scribed lines for the framework.

4. The apparatus as recited in claim 1 , further comprising means for adjustably lengthening said means for enabling scribing a circle.

5. The apparatus as recited in claim 4 , further comprising means for joining said means for adjustably lengthening to the apparatus.

6. The apparatus as recited in claim 1 , further comprising additional means for enabling scribing a circle for the framework.

7. An apparatus for drafting a framework for a pattern, the apparatus comprising:

a generally rigid planer structure;

a pivot point comprising a pivot point aperture extending through said rigid planer structure for enabling scribing a center point of the framework and rotating said rigid planer structure about the center point;

a plurality of marked linear lines on a top surface of said rigid planer structure and passing through said pivot point, each of said plurality of marked linear lines being equally spaced about said pivot point and comprising a plurality of apertures on both sides of said pivot point for enabling scribing marks for forming a basis for equally spaced linear lines about the center point in the framework, where the marks are scribed with said rigid planer structure at a fixed position relative to the center point; and

at least one line of generally equally spaced longitudinal apertures, wherein each of said longitudinal apertures is at a first fixed radial distance from said pivot point, for enabling scribing a circle for the framework, where the circle is scribed by rotation of said rigid planer structure about said pivot point the center point.

8. The apparatus as recited in claim 7 , further comprising means for pivotally securing the apparatus for rotating about said pivot point.

9. The apparatus as recited in claim 7 , further comprising indicia for enabling determination of dimensions of scribed lines for the framework.

10. The apparatus as recited in claim 7 , further comprising a length adjustable apparatus for adjustably lengthening said line of longitudinal apertures.

11. The apparatus as recited in claim 10 , further comprising a flexible connection for joining said length adjustable apparatus to the apparatus.

12. The apparatus as recited in claim 7 , further comprising an additional line of generally equally spaced additional longitudinal apertures, wherein each of said additional longitudinal apertures is at a second fixed radial distance from said pivot point, for enabling scribing a circle for the framework, where the circle is scribed by rotation of said rigid planer structure about said pivot point.

13. The apparatus as recited in claim 7 , wherein said rigid structure comprises an acrylic, polymer or metal material.

14. The apparatus as recited in claim 7 , wherein said rigid structure is sufficiently transparent for viewing scribed lines.

15. A method for drafting a framework for a pattern using the apparatus of claim 7 , the method comprising:

steps for placing the apparatus on a desired drafting surface;

steps for scribing the center point and scribing marks on opposite sides of the center point for a basis for equally spaced linear lines about the center point in the framework, where the marks are scribed with the apparatus at a fixed position relative to the center point;

steps for choosing longitudinal apertures;

steps for scribing a plurality of circles for the framework;

steps for removing the apparatus from said drafting surface;

steps for scribing diametric lines, of an outermost circle of said plurality of circles; and

steps for using the framework to scribe the pattern.

16. The method as recited in claim 15 , further comprising steps for of securing the apparatus to said drafting surface.

17. The method as recited in claim 15 , further comprising steps for adjustably lengthening said line of longitudinal apertures.

18. A method for drafting a framework for a pattern using the apparatus of claim 7 , the method comprising the steps of:

placing the apparatus on a desired drafting surface for the apparatus to freely rotate about said pivot point;

scribing said drafting surface through said pivot point and apertures of said plurality of lines for forming the center point and scribing marks on opposite sides of the center point for a basis for equally spaced linear lines about the center point in the framework, where the marks are scribed with the apparatus at a fixed position relative to the center point;

choosing longitudinal apertures;

scribing a plurality of circles for the framework by using said chosen longitudinal apertures and rotating the apparatus relative to said drafting surface about said pivot point;

removing the apparatus from said drafting surface;

scribing diametric lines, of an outermost circle of said plurality of circles, along said scribing marks, for lines in the framework; and

using the framework to scribe the pattern.

19. The method as recited in claim 18 , further comprising the step of securing the apparatus to said drafting surface for rotating about said pivot point.

20. The method as recited in claim 18 , further comprising the step of joining a length adjustable apparatus to the apparatus for adjustably lengthening said line of longitudinal apertures.
