🔺HOW TO MAKE TRAMMEL / BEAM COMPASS??

🔺what is beam compass??

A beam compass is a precision drawing instrument used for creating large circles or arcs, often employed in carpentry, drafting, and metalworking. Unlike a standard compass, which has a fixed radius, a beam compass consists of a long bar (the "beam") with adjustable components attached to it. These components include a pivot point and a drawing or marking point that can be moved along the beam to set the radius of the circle. This design allows for the drawing of circles or arcs with a radius much larger than what a traditional compass can achieve, making it an essential tool for tasks requiring precise, large-scale measurements and markings.

đź”´In this detailed DIY tutorial, I'll show you how to create a Veritas Carpenter's Gauge that combines the functionality of a direct-reading compass and a marking gauge, perfect for any carpentry project. Using high-quality materials like brass and copper, this tool not only performs exceptionally well but also boasts a stunning, handcrafted appearance.

Watch as I walk you through each step of the process, from selecting the right materials to the intricate assembly. You'll see how to utilize brass and copper to enhance both durability and aesthetic appeal. I also share my techniques for hand engraving, demonstrating how I branded my logo onto the gauge for a personal touch.
