A trammel head set is a versatile tool designed for use in woodworking, metalworking, and other precision tasks. It typically consists of a pair of adjustable trammel heads that clamp onto a straight edge, such as a wooden beam, metal bar, or ruler, to create a compass or scribe for drawing or measuring large circles and arcs.
Key components include:
• Adjustable heads: equipped with locking screws or clamps to secure them in place.
• Steel points or pencil holders: For marking or scribing.
• Durable materials: Typically made of steel, brass, or aluminum for long-lasting performance.
• Compatibility: Designed to work with standard straight edges of varying thicknesses.
Applications: Trammel head sets are commonly used for tasks like layout marking, circle cutting, template creation, and drafting in carpentry, machining, and even art projects.
