A French curve is a flexible drawing instrument used in engineering drawing to create smooth, freehand curves and irregular shapes. It is made of transparent plastic or metal and features a series of smoothly curved edges. Engineers and designers can align the French curve with existing lines or points and trace along its contours to produce precise and aesthetically pleasing curves. French curves are commonly used for designing organic shapes, ergonomic contours, or complex profiles in technical drawings, enhancing the overall visual appeal and functionality of the illustrated components.
