Woodpeckers inDexable Square System - Combination Square Head Only, Fits Mini Blades [No Blade Included]

Woodpeckers was established in 1988, and our focus has always been on woodworking tools. Starting with just a few routers, we've grown into a full-fledged manufacturer of router lifts, router fences, measuring & layout tools, and many useful clamping accessories. We take pride in the fact that our tools are truly made in the U.S.A., as we do our own machining, engraving, assembly, and packing.

The combination square, invented in 1878, has been copied countless times over the last 140+ years. However, until now, no one has done much to improve upon the classic design. Woodpeckers' product development team wanted more than just a "me too" product, so they built features into our in-DEXABLE Combination Squares that you won't find in any other combination square, regardless of price.

These features include laser-accurate scribing guides, positive indexing at every full inch, a sliding head support, and accurate, laser-engraved scales. To complete the system, we've added a Double Square head, a new Centering Head, and a new Protractor Head, all with the same precise full-inch indexing feature.

The scribing guides on our in-DEXABLES are laser-cut on 1/16" centers, sized and shaped to guide any marking device perfectly parallel to the edge of your stock. The round holes in the center of the blade index the heads to the closest full inch, and the scales are laser-engraved to an accuracy of ±.004" with 1/16" and 1/32" graduations. The blades are available in 6", 12", and 18" lengths, all of which fit all four heads, as well as the XL Combination and XL Double Square heads. For those who prefer metric, we offer versions with 1mm graduations and heads that lock every 30mm.

The genius of the combination square is having both the 90° and 45° angles in one convenient tool. Woodpeckers adds a new feature to the classic design with a sliding tab that supports the head while it's hanging off the edge of your work. The Double Square head is more compact than the Combination Square head and more convenient when you know you're not dealing with miters, also featuring the sliding tab for edge support.

When your projects get more complicated and call for angles other than 45°, 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° both right and left, with an alignment pin that indexes to the edge of the blade for fast, accurate registration of standard angles (22.5°, 45°, 67.5°, and 90°). All other angles are easily set to the high-contrast laser-engraved scale.

The Centering Head holds the blade at a 45° angle relative to machined 90° surfaces, making it easy to locate the center of squares and circles. Opposite the 90° centering guides, the back side of the Centering Head locks in with the indexing feature, allowing you to scribe without changing heads.

If you want a different blade or additional heads, you can buy all the parts individually. Just remember that standard heads only fit standard blades, metric heads only fit metric blades, and mini heads only fit mini blades.
