Measuring the narrow edge of stock with typical rules is a little awkward. Getting the rule parallel to the stock and leaving yourself room to make a mark can become quite a juggling act. Working on the face of a piece is usually a little easier, but you can still struggle to keep the rule parallel to your work. Woodpeckers Woodworkers Edge Rule simplifies your life by wrapping around the edge of your stock and giving you an accurate scale on both sides.
The angle inside the Edge Rule is 89 °. This slightly acute angle puts the contact between your workpiece and the Edge Rule at the outside edges which means slight deviations in your workpiece edge won't throw off your measurement. Both edges are beveled, putting the scale right next to your work, which simplifies marking and minimizes parallax error.
The short side is just 9.5mm wide, giving you plenty of room to mark stock as thin as 10mm. The long side reaches 19mm across the face of your piece. Whether you're working on the edge or the face, the corner of the Edge Rule always keeps you properly aligned.
The Edge Rules are anodized for surface protection in the familiar “Woodpeckers Red” colour. The graduated scale is laser engraved to an accuracy of ± .004in total accumulated error over the entire length.
Rule Stop
Edge Rule Stops make a great rule even easier to use for repetitive marking. The stop fits the Edge Rule like a glove. Slide it to your desired measurement, lock it, and mark at the end of the rule. You’ll get exactly the same measurement no matter how many pieces you need. Purchased separately from the drop-down list.
Rack-It Storage
Keep your Edge Rules stored conveniently right where you need them with the Edge Rule Rack-It™. The powder-coated Rack-It™ mounts anywhere and holds 4 Edge Rules and Edge Rule Stops. Purchased separately from the drop-down list.
Like all Woodpeckers products, the Edge Rule is precisely machined and carefully inspected in Woodpeckers Strongsville, Ohio facility.
