One edge. Every angle.
Seat the base on a corner or a straight edge. Swing the arm. Mark along the scale. ARCHONOS keeps the reference, so the next mark starts where the last one did.

The instrument
Stop resetting the tool.
Measuring an angle and a distance usually means two tools and a second lineup. That is where marks drift. ARCHONOS puts the pivot and the ruler on one instrument, so layout starts from a fixed point.
Accurate pivot
The angle lives on the pivot, not in a second guess.
Multi-angle transfer
Pick up a rake from the work and put it on the next piece.
Compact and durable
Three pieces. A carton that hangs. Built to live in a kit.
Easy alignment
One edge is the reference for every mark after it.

Filament
PETG prints first.
A layout tool lives in a kit, a cab, and a job box. PETG is the priority. ABS is the harder plastic for heat. ABA is the harder plastic for weather. The carton names the one you paid for.
Priority filament
PETG
The shop print. The carton for this tool says PETG.
- Toughness
- Flexes before it snaps. Survives a drop and a clamp.
- Heat
- Holds an edge in a warm cab and a sunlit job box.
- Shop
- Takes oils and a damp bench. The filament a layout tool should be.
Harder plastic
ABS
The heat-tough print. The carton for this tool says ABS.
- Heat
- Stays rigid near 100°C. The pick for a hot cab or a tool left on a dash.
- Impact
- Takes a knock. Acetone can smooth the surface after it is printed.
- Limit
- Sunlight yellows it. PETG stays the priority for a job box.
Harder plastic
ABA
The weather-tough print in the ABS family. The carton for this tool says ABA.
- Heat
- Stays rigid in a hot cab, with the ABS family.
- Weather
- Holds up in sunlight longer than ABS.
- Limit
- PETG is still the priority for a general kit.
