Questions & Answers

To me, it appears to be aluminum. It's steel or aluminum, is it not?

It is made from aluminum with a scale (mm) printed on it, not in inches.

Measurements are all metric, or some of them are?

Although it has all metric markings, I do not use it as a ruler, but only for a 90o or 45o setup for a table saw blade, or to set up the table for a band saw.

The gauge is nice
5/5

The thing is great, maybe not for framing a whole house, but for doing Don't let it be too big, don't let it be New ways of using it keep popping up in my head. I almost feel like they designed it to serve as a SAE model, even though it's metric. By finishing the wood down to 5/8 x 2 3/8 (I use the gauge while I plan), you will have dimensional wood for your project. The inner "hole" of the 90 degree side of the gauge allows you to mark out the mortise and tendon without measuring anything whatsoever. I added a pencil line to the 15mm and it came out to 5/8, which was the right figure The frame is based on 15mm for the most part and the metric markings on the outside are oriented to the inside straight edges, so that in order to locate the center or to lay out a double mortise, you must convert the lengths from 15mm to metric. Nothing needs to be moved on the gauge when you mark. (Metric is a useful tool when assessing a process. intended for combining tendon and miter combinations. When you use the proper sized dimensions, you just have to think about using the inner cutouts and outer edges together. This thing has every edge you could possibly need if you are doing wood sizing. Additionally, it stands out quite well for the late 40's and late 90's.

I like how easy it is The only wish I would have had is that it was a bit heavier and steel based
5/5

Great miter guide. I use it on the inside edges of my projects so I can draw cuts on the inside edge. It's made of aluminum so it is a bit on the lighter side, but it's well marked and easy to use. Since the shape of this hat calls for steel or thicker gauge aluminum, I wish it was made of steel. As it is a mitre, I like how it is made with both the 45 and 90 degree angles.

It was a good investment
5/5

This marking tool is very useful. The square I measured was exactly what the drafting triangle showed. On the exterior corner of the cover, there was a small burr that I removed with 1000g sandpaper and a flat stone, very simple to Since the machined surface made even contact with the plane on both the 90- and 45-degree sides, I know it is true on both sides! This small investment will pay off in the long run.

It greatly improves the accuracy of layouts
5/5

It has always seemed to me that there should be an easier way to lay out miter cuts for metalworking. For projects, I cut a lot of square tubing, and transferring the point onto the material before cutting is not always easy with a tri-saw. Despite its rounded corners, the box still looks square. Solution to this problem is provided by this tool. I am impressed with its quality, and it is well.

I found it to be very helpful for what I needed
5/5

The lines I had to "continue" around the other side of the doors had to be continued around. In order to get sufficient accuracy, we needed a saddle square rather than a regular combination square. There are metric markings on this one, and it is a bit larger than I would like. It is not really necessary to mark the surfaces. There is a great deal of accuracy in the square. Working in a very small space can pose a problem due to its size. There is no doubt that this was good value for.

The Japanese quality is so low that I didn't know it! It was just yesterday that I received this piece, and the moment I opened it, I noticed it wasn't square, so how exact could it In the event that a second purchase is made from the same retailer and I will carefully check it, if it has the same problem I will write another review with more details

A marking gauge with an accurate reading
5/5

Using a combination square, we can confirm all angles are This is a nicely machined product made of fairly thin aluminum and is a good size for most uses. There is a need to improve shipping protection- The package was not protected, and it came in an unmarked envelope. It became apparent to me that I would have to return the envelope as soon as I took it out of the mailbox. I was amazed to find that the device was undamaged when I received it! Make sure to not drop or step on it since it is a precise marking tool. It will all work out just.

The tool is of good quality
4/5

My opinion is that it's good. Although I'm not exactly sure what to do with it, since it's in metric units, I'm sure I can Although it looks like an excellent tool for laying out mortise and tendon joints, there is one thing to consider. We can't wait for the ice and snow to melt so that we can play with it. The only drawback (other than being metric) is the fact that the numbers appear to be silkscreened on while the measure marks are engraved.
