Woodpeckers Aluminium Paolini 300mm Metric Pocket Rule

A simple add-on fixture and thoughtful scale layout make these the perfect fit for your apron pocket (in metric!).

Designed by professional woodworker Greg Paolini, the Paolini Pocket Rule has become a Woodpeckers favourite. So, what sets Paolini Pocket Rules apart from all others?

The most unique feature is the stop that slides up and down the length of the blade. Lock it in to make repetitive measurements on multiple boards. There’s also a fine notch in the end of the rule. Set your stop, place a pencil in the notch, and you’ve got an instant marking gauge

When you need vertical measurement, slide the stop off the end and insert it into the cut-out on the blade. Now your rule has a perfect stand to keep it upright while you use both hands to dial in the height of a router bit, saw blade or dado stack, matching it to the easy-to read scale engraved on the end of the rule. 

Two material choices

The bright white laser engraved scales on the “Woodpecker Red” anodized surface make the original aluminium Paolini Pocket Rule one of the easiest-to-read rules on the market, as well as one of the lightest. Both are aluminium and stainless steel milled to a precise 1in width. The anodized aluminium rule is 3.2mm thick. Regardless of the material choice you make, you’ll love the clean, precise look of our state-of-the-art laser engraving, as will generations of woodworkers to come.
