The OKODOKO Adjustable Protractor is an ideal 2-in-1 measurement solution for woodworkers, engineers, and DIY enthusiasts who require precision in both linear and angular dimensions. Its key benefit lies in the seamless combination of a 30cm ruler and a 180-degree protractor, allowing for rapid angle marking and length measurement in a single handheld device. A notable caveat is that while the stainless steel construction is durable, users should avoid overtightening the thumb nut to prevent stripping the threads over long-term intensive use.

It can measure angles ranging from 0 up to 180 degrees.
The ruler is marked for length measurement up to 30 cm (approximately 11.8 inches).
The product is provided as a standalone tool; it is recommended to store it in a dry, safe location away from heavy impact.
Most professional-grade stainless steel tools like this may have slight magnetic properties, but it is not designed to function as a magnet.
Align the V-shaped cutout on the head of the tool against the edge of a cylinder or circular workpiece to locate the central axis.
Ensure the washer is correctly seated and the threads are free of grit; if it persists, check if the nut has been cross-threaded.
Verify that there is no dried glue or debris on the edge of the base that could be preventing a flush fit against your workpiece.
To begin using the tool, ensure the sliding ruler blade is clean and free of debris. When adjusting the angle, hold the base firmly against your reference edge and rotate the ruler arm until the desired degree mark aligns with the indicator notch on the base. Tighten the thumb nut by hand until the ruler blade is immobilized. To maintain the accuracy of your OKODOKO tool, wipe it down with a dry, lint-free cloth after each use to remove sawdust or metal shavings. Periodically check the thumb nut for smooth operation; if it feels gritty, a light application of machine oil on the threads can restore smooth movement. Store the tool in a flat or hanging position to prevent the blade from bending or warping.
