This model is not currently offered as a verified ready to buy print.
What it does
- Finds the center of any circle quickly
- Two angle versions: 90 and 110 degrees
- Saves time aligning gears, wheels, and shafts
- Marker groove guides a clean line across the part
- A staple for makers, hobbyists, and shop workers
You set the tool against a wheel and the marker draws a line straight through the center. This center finder uses simple geometry to bisect any circle: align the inner edges to the outer edge, draw a line, rotate, and where the lines cross is the center.
Two angle versions cover real cases. The 90 degree handles smaller wheels, the 110 degree fits larger ones. The marker groove guides a sharpie or marker for a clean line.
Use it for aligning gears, wheels, robot servos, and any project where a circle needs a center mark.

What it is made of

Printed plastic is strong for its size, but it is not metal. We have not load tested this design, so we do not publish a weight rating. Keep it out of a hot car and away from open flame.
