“When your projects call for angles other than 45 and 90 degrees, the new In-Dexable Protractor Head will be a welcome addition to your shop. The smooth-turning protractor can be adjusted to any angle between 0 and 90 degrees both right and left. Built-in stops register standard angles (22.5, 45, 67.5 and 90 degrees) quickly and accurately. All other angles are easily set to the high-contrast laser-engraved scale. Two large locking knobs and an 8" long reference edge build confidence in your angle layout. When you’re working straight and square, the Protractor is still a welcome partner in your shop. When locked square, it’s a handy T-square with built-in scribing guides. The Protractor comes standard with an 18" blade.
“The Centering Head holds the blade at a 45-degree angle relative to machined 90-degree surfaces. Marking the two diagonals of a square locates center. Similarly, strike the diameter of a circle with the square resting on the outside in two different spots and you’ve located the center of the circle. Maintaining the scribing feature found in all In-Dexables, Woodpeckers made the back of the centering head flat and the blade indexes to that side. It’s a nice compact size for scribing parallel to the edge of your stock. The Centering Head comes standard with the 6" blade.
