Woodpeckers Large Sliding Bevel Gauge

Product Description

Woodpeckers Large 7'' (178mm) Sliding Bevel.

Whether you’re laying out dovetails, copying an angle from an old piece, or transferring a plan’s angle onto wood, you want a bevel gauge that adjusts smoothly, locks securely — and stays locked until you release it. The Woodpeckers Sliding Bevel Gauge and Bevel Block delivers that with a distinctive locking system: a knob designed to sit comfortably between thumb and forefinger, giving clear tactile feedback when adjusting tension. Inside, a wedge mechanism multiplies your pressure so the blade grips firmly even with modest finger pressure. 

Two Sizes for Different Projects
There are two models: this listing is for the 7'' (178mm) sliding bevel which is better suited to larger furniture work , there is a separate listing for the a 4'' (100mm) version which is ideal for ideal for small jobs like dovetails. Both use satin-finish stainless-steel blades, stainless hardware, the jewelled insets described above — and a rugged aluminium body finished in “Woodpecker’s Red.” 

Optional Extras - The Bevel Block: A Handy Angle Reference
The Bevel Block provides a physical references for the most common mitre angles and popular dovetail angles. By referencing its different faces, you can set the primary angle, its complement (90° minus that angle), or its supplement (180° minus it). 

As with all tools from Woodpeckers, each piece is precision-machined and carefully inspected at their facility in Ohio to meet high standards of quality.
