Description

Greg Paolini of North Carolina is a professional woodworker who builds one-of-a-kind commissioned furniture and exquisite custom kitchens. In his spare time, he tries to figure out how to make woodworking faster, easier and more enjoyable. Several years ago, he inspired Woodpeckers to come up with the ideal woodworker’s pocket rule. 

The Paolini Pocket Rule offers a thoughtful calibration scale layout and a simple add-on rule-stop making these rules the perfect fit for your apron pocket.  The metric model has 1mm scales on both sides.

Slide the stop off the end and insert it into the cut-out on the blade. Now your rule has a perfect stand to keep it upright while you use both hands to dial in the height of a router bit, saw blade or dado stack, matching it to the easy-to-read scale engraved on the end of the rule.

The bright white laser engraved scales on the 'Woodpeckers Red' anodised surface make the original aluminium Paolini Pocket Rule one of the easiest-to-read rules on the market, as well as one of the lightest. If you prefer a thinner rule, go for the stainless steel version. Both are milled to a precise 1-inch width. The anodised aluminium rule is 3.18mm (1/8") thick and the stainless model is 1.59mm (1/16") thick. You will love the clean, precise look of the state-of-the-art laser engraving, as will generations of woodworkers to come.

Paolini Pocket Rules come in three different lengths; 150mm, 200mm and 300mm.

Great ruler worth every penny

I've been looking for something like this for years!

I have so many different types of rule and rule stop but none which can stand on edge like this one. I have to check flooring panels for flatness and this tool makes it so much easier, especially when I have to photograph any cupping or warping. It's VERY expensive for what it is, but who wouldn't pay for a first-class tool that does the job?

Easily Read

The pun was intended. What's more once the rule is set: it remains fixed. I found the Wood Workers Workshop far more than just an alliteration, thank you. Let's hope the latest Woodpecker's HexScale Rule will become available from them soon. George.

Nice but…

As a rule good, setting the tooling height on a spindle moulder ok, not so much on a router. My real bugbear is using as a square, in that the (small) straight edge obstructs the transfer of the face side to face edge and vice-versa so only a three. Sorry Woodpecker

Lovely workshop companion

A really nicely engineered piece of kit to reach for on small set-ups in the shop.

Very pleased with this rule

I did question if it was worth paying fifty quid for a six inch rule, or I should say 150mm. However, now I have it I’m happy I did. My choice was the red aluminium version with the white measuring scales which I find very easy to read and mark from. The notch in the end which the lead of a pencil fits into makes for very accurate marking. The twin screwed rule stop is dead square to the rule and I’ve found it to be just as good as any small square I’ve got, effectively making it two tools in one. The ability to use it as a rule stand is very useful for blade depth height adjustments. It comes at a price, but what extremely well engineered tool doesn’t. It’s my first bit of Woodpeckers kit and it definitely won’t be my last. Wood Workers Workshop were extremely helpful when I emailed in a question before my purchase and will be my go to supplier for future Woodpeckers tools.

A rule that I can keep on my person whilst making household fitted furniture & general repairs, avoiding the frustration of not having a measure close to hand when needed.

usual woodpecker quality, very pocketable and the SS version slimmer blade than the aluminium one so easier to read. Great for setting blade height on table saw.

Paolini pocket rule

I have several woodpecker squares and rules but the Paolini is superb. It is so easy to use and so accurate.
This item as all Woodpecker products is expensive but once you have tried it your hooked.
