Chomp Table Accessories Set -- Precision Guides for More Confident Making

The Chomp Table Accessories Set is a three-piece accessory kit designed for use with the ChompSaw. It includes an Attachable Fence for straight cuts at exact measurements, a Circle Guide for cutting smooth, even circles, and an Angle Guide for precise angled cuts. Together, these three guides transform the ChompSaw from a basic cutting tool into a precision making system -- one that gives children the structure and accuracy they need to produce results they are genuinely proud of.

What's Included

The set contains three purpose-built accessories, each addressing a different cutting challenge:

• Attachable Fence -- A new lid for the ChompSaw featuring an adjustable fence that enables straight cuts at exact measurements between ¼" and 3½". Eliminates the need to freehand a straight line and keeps every cut consistent.
• Circle Guide -- A dual-sided guide for cutting smooth, even circles. Flip the tool to measure in inches or centimetres and set a custom circle radius for wheels, gears, porthole windows, and any circular design element.
• Angle Guide -- Inserts into the ChompSaw's new lid and uses built-in 15-degree marking lines to set precise angles for angled cuts. Removes the guesswork from structural and decorative angled cuts entirely.

How It Helps

One of the biggest barriers children face in cardboard construction is the gap between what they can picture and what they can physically produce. Freehand cutting, estimating angles, and drawing smooth curves all require a level of spatial reasoning and fine motor control that many children -- particularly those with dyspraxia or dyslexia -- find genuinely difficult. The Chomp Table Accessories Set closes that gap by doing the measuring and guiding work for the child, leaving them free to focus on the making.

For Parents and Home Use

• Enables children to achieve professional-looking results at home without adult intervention at every step
• Reduces the frustration of uneven cuts, lopsided circles, and wonky angles that can derail a project
• Supports increasingly ambitious making projects as children grow in confidence -- from simple boxes to wheeled vehicles and gear mechanisms
• The dual inches and centimetres Circle Guide supports maths learning in a practical, hands-on context
• Works as a complete system with the ChompSaw and the wider Chomp Maker Bundle range

For Schools and Classroom Use

• Supports design and technology, STEM, and art lessons at Key Stage 1, Key Stage 2, and Key Stage 3
• The Angle Guide's 15-degree markings offer a practical, hands-on way to explore geometry and angles across maths and DT lessons
• The Circle Guide's dual measurement scale (inches and centimetres) supports measurement and estimation skills in a meaningful making context
• The Attachable Fence enables pupils with coordination difficulties to achieve straight, accurate cuts independently, supporting inclusion in group making tasks
• Reduces the need for adult intervention during cutting steps, freeing up teacher and TA time during practical lessons
• Durable accessories designed for repeated classroom use alongside the ChompSaw

Supporting Children with Dyspraxia / DCD

Children with dyspraxia, also known as Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD), frequently find cutting tasks particularly challenging. Holding a straight line, estimating an angle visually, and cutting a smooth curve all demand precise coordination between hand, eye, and tool -- exactly the kind of multi-step physical task that DCD makes difficult. The Chomp Table Accessories Set replaces visual estimation and freehand control with physical guides that constrain and direct the cutting action. The Attachable Fence keeps cuts straight without the child needing to follow a pencil line. The Circle Guide sets the radius so the child only needs to rotate the tool, not judge the curve. The Angle Guide locks the angle in place before the cut is made. Each accessory reduces a complex coordination demand to a simpler, more manageable physical action -- which is precisely the kind of environmental adaptation that occupational therapists recommend for children with DCD in practical activity settings.

Supporting Children with Dyslexia

For children with dyslexia, making and construction activities are among the most rewarding learning contexts available -- spaces where spatial thinking, creativity, and problem-solving come to the fore without the barriers of reading and writing. The Chomp Table Accessories Set extends what children with dyslexia can achieve in these spaces by making precision techniques accessible. Cutting wheels for a vehicle, building a structure with angled joints, or designing a project with geometric accuracy are all more achievable when the tools provide the structure. The result is a richer, more ambitious making experience that builds confidence and develops skills that transfer across the curriculum.

A Complete Precision System

The Chomp Table Accessories Set is designed to work as part of the complete Chomp Maker Bundle system. Used alongside the ChompSaw, the Chomp Cardboard Scoring Tool, and the Chomp Cardboard Hole Punch Tool, it gives children access to the full range of core cardboard construction techniques -- cutting, scoring, joining, and now precision shaping -- using a cohesive set of tools designed to work together.

Whether you are a parent investing in a home making kit that will grow with your child, or a school equipping a DT room or SEN making station, the Chomp Table Accessories Set is the upgrade that takes cardboard construction from basic to genuinely impressive.

The gap between what a child imagines making and what they can actually cut is one of the most discouraging experiences in craft. The Chomp Table Accessories Set closes that gap with three precision guides -- a Fence for straight cuts, a Circle Guide for smooth curves, and an Angle Guide for exact angles -- all designed to do the measuring and guiding work so the child can focus on the making.

For children with dyspraxia / DCD, each guide replaces a complex coordination demand with a simpler, directed action. For children with dyslexia, it opens up ambitious, precision-driven projects in a space where they can genuinely excel. The results speak for themselves -- and so does the confidence that follows.

A three-piece set that transforms the ChompSaw into a complete precision making system for every child.

  The accessories are designed for use with the ChompSaw, which is part of the Chomp Maker Bundle. The Attachable Fence and Angle Guide both attach to or insert into the ChompSaw's compatible lid. The ChompSaw is sold separately as part of the Maker Bundle.
• Is the Chomp Table Accessories Set suitable for children with dyspraxia?
  Yes. The set is particularly well suited to children with dyspraxia / DCD because each of the three guides replaces a complex freehand coordination task with a simpler, physically directed action. The fence keeps cuts straight without requiring the child to follow a line. The Circle Guide sets the radius so only a rotating motion is needed. The Angle Guide locks the angle before the cut is made. Each accessory reduces the motor and spatial demand of the cutting task, making precise results achievable for children who find freehand cutting and estimation difficult.
• How does the Table Accessories Set support children with dyslexia?
  For children with dyslexia, making activities offer a powerful alternative learning and confidence-building context. The Chomp Table Accessories Set extends the range and ambition of what children with dyslexia can make -- enabling precision techniques such as cutting wheels, creating angled joints, and producing consistent straight edges -- without requiring the written planning and measurement skills that can be a barrier. The result is a more rewarding making experience that builds genuine confidence.
• What age is the Chomp Table Accessories Set suitable for?
  The set is designed for use as part of the Chomp Maker Bundle and is suitable for primary and lower secondary school-age children, with adult supervision recommended throughout.
• Can the Table Accessories Set be used in school DT lessons?
  Yes. The set is well suited to design and technology, STEM, and art lessons at Key Stage 1, Key Stage 2, and Key Stage 3. The Angle Guide supports hands-on geometry learning, the Circle Guide supports measurement skills in a practical context, and the Attachable Fence enables pupils with coordination difficulties to cut accurately and independently. It is a practical, inclusive addition to any school making toolkit.
• Can the Circle Guide measure in centimetres as well as inches?
  Yes. The Circle Guide is dual-sided and can be flipped to measure in either inches or centimetres, allowing you to set your circle radius in whichever unit is most useful. This makes it practical for both UK classroom use (centimetres) and working from US-format Chomp project plans (inches).
• How does the Angle Guide work?
  The Angle Guide inserts into the ChompSaw's new lid and features built-in 15-degree marking lines. Set your desired angle before you cut and the guide holds that position so you can make a precise angled cut consistently and safely without needing to mark or estimate the angle freehand.
