You can use a string too. Put the screw or whatever in the middle, tie a string around it and your pencil the measurement you need, then run your line. Tie the string loose around the screw and the pencil so it doesn't wrap around either and make your circle oblong.

 

Of course if you don't have your compass handy, it might be a similar problem if you don't have string handy...

You can draw a circle with a couple of nails and framing square too

Here's a tip: put scotch tape on the substance of your small portable air compressor tape so you can compose your estimations on it. Note: utilize a pencil with an eraser for persistent work.
