150MM METRIC WOODWORKING RULER - The Woodpeckers Hook Rule makes referencing the edge of your work easy. Just bring the hook against the edge of your board and zero is instantly registered.
R2L & L2R LASER ENGRAVED SCALES - On one side of the Hook Rule the scales reads left-to-right (with the hook) and on the other side, the scale reads right-to-left (from square end).
STAINLESS STEEL - The Hook Rule is made from hardened stainless spring steel and finished with a special process that produces a non-glare satin surface. Each Hook Rule comes with a Rack-It (wall mountable storage).
ENGRAVED HOOK - The hook on the end of the rule is laser engraved for easy access to check or set the height of saw blades, router bits and your drill press.
MADE IN USA - Like all Woodpeckers products, these Hook Rules are proudly machined and carefully inspected in our Strongsville, OH facility, just south of Cleveland.
Where’s the edge? So often in the shop, that’s a critical question. Trying to visually align a ruler to the edge of a board opens up an opportunity for error. The Hook Rule, adds a little feature – a hook – to the traditional shop rule and instantly improves your accuracy. Just bring the hook against the edge of your board and zero is instantly registered. It even works if the edge has already been rounded over or chamfered (profile’s less than 1/4" deep). We’ve changed the engraving of the graduations to make this the most versatile rule in your shop. On one side, the scale reads from left-to-right (with the hook). On the other side, the scale reads from right-to-left (from the square end). Need to measure from an inside corner? Register from the square end. Need to measure from an edge? Flip it over and use the hook. Both sides feature one scale in sixteenths and another in thirty-seconds. For metric, 1mm increments. The side that reads right-to-left is ideal for setting up your table saw. Place the end against the fence & align the desired measurement to the saw blade. We also engraved the end of the hook for easy access to check or set the height of saw blades, router bits & drill press. The Hook Rules are just 1/32” thick, eliminating parallax viewing error. They’re made from hardened stainless spring steel and finished with a special process that produces a non-glare satin surface. The graduations are laser engraved to a tolerance of ±.004" total accumulated error. In short, they’re designed and manufactured to last through generations of woodworkers. We make the hook rules in inch and metric sizes. Each comes with a wall-mountable Rack-It to keep your Hook Rules safe, but always within easy reach. Each size is available individually, in the complete set. Keep a 6" in your apron pocket, a 12" on your bench and the 24" hanging by your table saw for the next cabinetry project.
