Roubo Curves® are metal french curves on “steroids”. Our original set of curves were introduced in August 2015 providing artisans a large scale metal French curve set. The set is scaled to a perfect size for full size work, with its largest curve having a length of 18”.
In November 2017 we introduced two other very useful curves to augment the Roubo Curves Product line. The “detail curve” RC-2-2 is just over 12” long and has many intricate curves to detail your projects with.
The “G Curve” RC-2-1 is a gentle curve is a scaled version of a popular curve that provides a nice gentle use curve for gentle arcs. This curve is also just over 12” long.
All our Roubo Curves are made from 304 Stainless Steel precision cut with a laser and then processed with a nice matte finish that is easy on the eyes for layout work – No Glare. The finish on the curves allows for marking with a pencil to reproduce curves on multiple items and then easily wipe away.
Roubo Curves are the most durable set of french curves you ever own. Bring some beautiful curves into your next project!

Hi Chris,
I just received my two sets of Roubo Curves, and they are amazing! When I opened the box, I literally heard myself utter “Wow, these are cool!” I was alone in the room, and I was the one who ordered the curves. Don’t you just love it when an ordered product thoroughly and completely exceeds expectations? These Roubo Curves did exactly that! I ordered one set for myself, and the second set for a lucky family member. We have over seven months left until Christmas; I’m not certain that I can wait that long, to see the recipient’s excitement, when examining their curves.
Cheers,
Lee
Lee,
Thank you so much for posting your experience! I remeber meeting you at some of the Lie Nielsen handtool events, you have such a passion for woodworking and hand tools.
Best Wishes,

Chris, I want to express my sincere appreciation for the quality of these curves. So many times I order something, whether it’s tools or consumables, and I find the quality is severely lacking and often compromising my project. I’ve used architectural French curves but all were made of plastic and not even a good quality plastic and don’t hold up to day-to-day use and over time, break and are thrown away.
Your curves are excellent! I ordered the full set and they’re perfect for laying out custom corbels, rafter tails, and other architectural elements I hand-make.
Well done!
Jim,
Thank you for your kind words and feedback, we really appreciate it and craftsmen like yourself!
Tools that inspire… My thoughts exactly as I opened the carefully packed Roubo Curves. These are the nicest drafting and layout tools in my studio. I love that they are large enough to use on full scale materials. As with every tool I have used from Sterling Tool Works….. they leave nothing to be desired.
Nimer,
Thank you so much for your comments, they are humbling from such a talented artist like yourself! Your work inspires us to make tools so we can see more stunning work that you create!
Best wishes,
Chris
