Heartwood Instruments lately launched two new units of squares from Ironbark Toolworks that may be adjusted in the event that they exit of whack. Their brass our bodies are superbly made, with quite a lot of infill woods obtainable. Commonplace 90° “strive” squares can be found in 4 sizes, with stainless-steel blades starting from 3 to 10 in. lengthy. And 45° miter squares can be found in three sizes: 4, 6, and eight in.
I attempted a 7-in. strive sq. and a 4-in. miter sq., and each have been completely correct out of the field. What’s progressive about them are two small set screws within the physique, which may appropriate the angle of the blade. I like having squares that received’t be ruined if I drop them, and I extremely suggest these.
