Woodpeckers DelVe Square

The most unique feature of the Woodpeckers DelVe Square is easy to overlook, but invaluable once you've found it. One side of the base is 1/4" (6.35mm) from the blade and the other is 3/8" (9.53mm). Mark from the 1/4" side on both edges of 3/4" (19.1mm) stock and you’ve just laid out a perfectly centered mortise or tenon. Use the 3/8" side to locate centre of 3/4" stock for joinery or hardware installation. The base wraps around your stock for a positive, accurate reference. That wrap-around feature also lets you mark the face and edge at the same time.

With a DelVe Square in your pocket, you always have set-up blocks of 1/8", 1/4", 1/2" and 3/4" at your fingertips. The blade is 1/8" thick and 1/2" wide. The base is 1/4" thick and 3/4" wide. Use whichever section you need for machinery set-up, joinery lay-out or other referencing chores.

Scales on the blade are engraved to an accuracy of ±0.004" total accumulated error. To make accurate layout even easier, there are scribing guides milled every eighth-inch along the blade. Just drop the tip of your pencil in the right hole and slide the base along the edge of your stock for perfectly parallel lines at the precise measurement you choose. To lay out angles, the hypotenuse is engraved at 5° increments, plus 22-1/2° and 67-1/2°.

On top of all these well thought out design features, the 90° and 45° angles are machined and inspected to Woodpeckers market-leading standards.

For years the DelVe Square has been one of Woodpeckers most popular and most frequently requested OneTIME Tools. Now it's joining their main roster of precision layout tools. Your DelVe Square will arrive in a CNC-machined, laser-engraved protective case, perfect for hanging your square on the wall when it's not in your pocket.
