Woodpeckers Precision Woodworking Protractor Head - Inch (WWRPRO-I)

Woodpeckers Woodworking Rules have earned a reputation for accuracy, convenience and ease-of-use. Now you can add “versatility” to that list of features. Woodpeckers Precision Woodworking Protractor converts any Woodpeckers Woodworking Rule (except the 6") into an adjustable T-Square that can set any angle from 0° to 180°.  The Precision Woodworking Protractor simply mounts to the Woodworking Rule using the same threaded holes as the Hook Stop. Now you can use your Woodworking Rule to lay out square and angled lines with a high degree of precision. 

The first time you pivot the head of the Protractor you’ll feel a precision fit between the components that immediately instills confidence. The movement is smooth and fluid with no backlash when you change direction. The laser-engraved scale is razor-sharp and the cursor matches up to the scale perfectly. Everything about the tool assures you that your carefully calculated angle is going to be laid down precisely. 

Setting an angle couldn’t be easier. Two locking knobs on the back of the head lock and release the head. Just adjust the scale to the angle you want, lock it in and strike your line. The laser-engraved angle scale is sharp and crisp. The indicator is carefully calibrated at the factory but can be easily re-calibrated if ever needed.

The Protractor is machined from aircraft-grade aluminum billet stock on state-of-the-art CNC milling centers. The components are anodized in our familiar “Woodpeckers Red” finish to prevent oxidation and improve wear resistance. All the hardware is either stainless steel or treated for corrosion resistance. The result is a tool that looks as good as it works, and will for generations to come. 

The Precision Woodworking Protractor comes standard with a wall-mountable Rack-It. The Rack-It can accommodate the Protractor by itself or with a Woodworking Rule attached. Either way, your Protractor will always be in plain sight and ready for work. 

Like all Woodpeckers tools, the Precision Woodworking Protractor is precisely machined and carefully inspected in Strongsville, Ohio, facility (just south of Cleveland).
