these tools are used by several professions, but they carry extended meaning to one in particular...

Navigator! Thanks!

Very nice compass. Architect or engineer.

all of those use em, but not the particular profession I had in mind...(it's a compass and another tool..)

A mariner? A drafting student?

both good guesses and use these 2, Ellen, but not the specific group I had in mind....If I drew it how they do, it'd be a dead give-away(and you'd see a letter)

Freemasonry ?

righto! give the man a prize! nice guess, trav...

not really the tools I think of for a mason while he's working, but you say "square and compass", and you can't help but think "masons". a lil sneaky of me there, but really those 2 items are used by so so many fields(all that were named, and then a host of others besides)

in case you're not familiar with it, here's the symbol for the freemasons...

Joe, you are much more ludicrous, er...ah.. lucid than I ;)

I thought this puzzle was really fun to do. Thanks Kurt Kowalczyk.

my pleasure :)

I won't stand for ridicule.

I'm much too lazy for that much standing.

hahahaha!

:D
