Woodpeckers HexScale Rule 150mm/6"

Wouldn't it be great to have one rule you could grab knowing you could reference from from right to left and left to right, measure in either millimetres or inches and locate the centre of anything instantly? With Woodpeckers HexScale Rules you have six different graduations in one handy rule. Woodpeckers has used the Hex shape to give you the six most useful graduations for woodworking all in one tool. Not only does HexScale put all the rules you need in one, the distinctive shape gets the laser-engraved scales right down on your material, virtually eliminating parallax viewing error.

Measure from right to left and left to right

In day-to-day layout work, left-to-right scale is the most familiar to woodworkers. With zero at the left edge of the rule the scale increases toward the right. Occasionally, a measurement needs to start from the right side, instead of the left. A familiar example of this is your table saw, where you often need to measure from the rip fence on the right to the edge of the blade.

Locate the centre easily

Whether for hardware mounting or joinery, woodworkers often need to find the centre of a board. A centering scale takes all the math out of the equation. Just adjust the rule so the same measurement lines up on both edges and the zero will be at the exact centre of the material. You can then either mark centre or lay out points the same distance either side of centre.

Metric and imperial graduations

All three scale options mentioned above are on the HexScale in both imperial and metric graduations. If you're looking at a scale in inches, roll the HexScale one time and the equivalent metric scale will replace it.

Repetitive marking

Woodpeckers designed a stop to fit the profile of the HexScale for repetitive marking. Just slide it on, adjust it to the dimension you want and mark as many items as you need.
