Woodpeckers Mini in-DEXABLE Combo Square with 12" Blade and Rack-It (CSQ-ST-20)

Woodpeckers Mini in-DEXABLE Combo Square with 12" Blade and Rack-It (CSQ-ST-20)

Woodpeckers MINI in-DEXABLE Squares pack all the great features of our full-size in-DEXABLES into compact tools that fit comfortably in your shop apron or jeans pocket. The MINI in-DEXABLE range includes 4", 6" and 8" indexed blades, all of which fit the combination square, double square, protractor head and centering head. The Protractor Head delivers accurate layout at any angle, with positive stops at 22-1/2°, 45°, 67-1/2° and 90°. The Centering Head locates the center of square and round stock with two quick marks. Both feature the same full-inch indexing feature found on the Combination Square and Double Square, enabling the use of the laser-accurate scribing guides in the graduated blades. If you prefer working in metric, we offer metric versions with scribing guides on 1mm centers and heads that lock every 30mm.

Versatile Tools You’ll Want Right in Your Pocket

The feature we think you’ll find most useful in all the MINI in-DEXABLE System is the laser-cut scribing guides cut every 1/16" along the blade (every 1mm on the metric versions). The guides are just the right size to capture a pencil tip for highly accurate parallel scribing. But where’s the “zero point” for the scribing guides? How do you get a true starting point with a head that moves? Just depress the springloaded index pin and lock the head at any full inch…now your scribing guides are dialed in and ready for accurate parallel marking (head locks every 30mm on the metric versions).

For years, one of our customers’ favorite features of our fixed-head squares has been the shoulder that keeps the square in position on the edge of your stock. We’ve added that to our combination and double squares, too. Just slide the head support out to keep the head of your square perfectly positioned without needing three hands. If it’s in the way, it just slides back into the head and doesn’t interfere with the alignment of the square in any way.

Combination Square Head: Woodworking’s Two Most Important Angles

90° and 45°. Everything you build involves one or both of these angles over and over again. The genius of the combination square is having both of them in your hand, all the time. Woodpeckers adds a new feature to the classic design with a sliding tab that supports the head while it’s hanging off the edge of your work.

Like all Woodpeckers products, the MINI in-DEXABLE Combination Square System is precisely machined and carefully inspected in our Strongsville, Ohio factory (just south of Cleveland).
