About the App
Fabricators Handbook is the quick, no-nonsense helper you wish you’d had on the shop floor years ago. Built by Gellis apps, this Tools app packs the everyday math and reference charts metalworkers lean on into one clean, practical place. Whether you’re laying out a cone, marking a segmental bend, or checking a flange size, it gives you fast answers so you can get back to cutting, rolling, and fitting.
App Features
-
Sheet metal layout: Figure out flat patterns for cones, transitions, segmental bends, and set-on pipes. Get developed lengths and wrap details without dragging out a big layout board.
-
Pipe and plate tools: Handy utilities for pipe wraps and plate work, so marking and cutting go smoother and you waste less material.
-
Go-to reference tables: Look up flange dimensions, tube schedules, and common fittings like elbows and tees. Includes metric and UNC drilling/tapping sizes you’ll reach for every day.
-
Angle and layout calculators: Nail your angles for small brackets or large fabrications. Great for quick fit-up checks and accurate layout on the bench.
-
Pitches and PCD: Calculate pitch circle diameters and straight pitches in seconds—ideal for bolt-hole layouts that need to be spot-on.
-
Diameter and circumference: Convert diameters to circumferences (and back) to figure rolling lengths and wraps without hunting for a formula.
-
Bisecting chord helper: Work out inside or outside radii using a straightedge and a ruler—perfect when you’re matching an existing curve.
-
Built-in how-tos: Short, practical examples show how to use each tool when you need a nudge, without getting in your way.
-
For pros and learners: Useful if you’ve been fabricating for decades or you’re just getting comfortable with layout math.
