Woodpeckers OneTIME Tool | Deluxe Trammel System

Описание: Beam Compass and Trammel Points - Drawing or scribing arcs or circles are important in woodworking shops that do any sort of organic shapes. In the past, trammel  points were on a simple beam. That beam could be any length and typically didn't have any measurements or scales on them. Trammel points are often sold as just that, trammel points. The consumer would then have to mill up a quick beam out of lumber. This is great for production work that is has a static measurement but when the user needs to adjust the measurement constantly, it becomes pretty cumbersome to get the tape or ruler out and make sure you are making the correct radius or diameter they desire. Compasses are the exact same way. To set your radius, you would have to use a metal ruler and set the pivot point into 1 (burning an inch) and then set your radius plus 1". This actually works very well and is plenty accurate for woodworking. But it requires more tools to get the job done. Woodpeckers has come up with a Trammel System that has a bunch of features that you are truly going to enjoy!

Deluxe Trammel System

Woodpeckers is known for coming up with extremely high quality and precise equipment. When we first heard about this next OneTIME Tool, we were a little unimpressed. But as we discussed it over coffee, we realized how valuable a high quality and precise trammel and compass system could be. We realized how crudely we setup these tasks in the past compared to how precise we are when it comes to other tasks in the workshop. Why not bring that same level of detail to a simple tool but make it easier, faster, and more accurate to work with? That is exactly what Woodpeckers did with their Deluxe Trammel System.


Includes:

3 beams (12", 24", 36" beams)
2 Sliding clamps
5 Attachments for the clamps
Pencil holders (mechanical pencils)

Edge Gauges
Cone Hole Locator
Corner Gauges
*All neatly organized in a CNC MDF case.


Three beam lengths

Sliding Clamps

Imperial Pencil Holder


Metric Pencil Holder

Trammel Points

Cone Hole Locator


Edge Guide

Corner Gauge
The three included beams have two laser engraved scales. One side is Imperial and the other side is metric. The Sliding Clamps have center lines to accurately line up against the engraved scales on the beams.  All 16 components are 100 percent USA in the state-of-the-art Woodpeckers CNC shop.

The system has seven function

With the 5 attachments for the sliding clamps. The Deluxe Trammel System has seven functions right off the bat. The user can easily scribe or draw their arc or circles with the pencil holders or scribe pins. Install the edge gauges and now you can accurately draw a parallel line that is exactly set to your trammel dimensions. With the Cone Hole Locators, you can finally determine the distance between the holes in a project. Lastly, with the Corner Gauges, you can quickly determine if a project is square with the Go-No-Go style gauge.

Center-lines are the Key to Accuracy

Woodpeckers has simplified how the system works by putting a center-line on the sliding clamps. These lines are what the user lines up the clamps to the measuring scale on the beams. With the highly accurate milling and chamfers, you will notice that the center-line goes down the chamfer as well. This allows the center-line to almost touch the scale. The closer these two variables are, the less chance the user has to making a mistake and get the dimension they are looking for.
