iGaging Precision Combination Squares Are Must-Have Tools For Your Woodworking Shop!
Precision Combination Squares are one of the most useful tools you can have in your shop. Use them for project layout when marking, measuring and especially for transferring measurements from one board to another, making them virtually essential for joinery work. We consider the combination square a small step up from the traditional double square because of the additional precision miter head that allows you to quickly find and lay out miters. Take advantage of the ergonomically correct design to find a comfortable spot for your hand. Although it doesn't fit quite as easily in your apron pocket as our 4" double square, you'll find the 6" combination square will follow you around the shop with very little effort. Our combination squares feature an additional center finding head. Use this machined steel add-on to line up perfect 45° miters or to mark the center of round objects. The 12" set also includes an adjustable protractor head to mark angles other than 90 and 45°.
Our 6" and 12" combination squares each have 5/64" thick blades that make them stiff and durable, a trait not shared with inferior quality squares. Designed specifically for woodworking, each uses an R4 graduation with inches and fractions. The side of the rule with the groove features 1/8" & 1/16" graduations while the other side is marked with 1/32" & 1/64" graduation. This is handy because most of the time you'll be using the side of the square with the machined groove that allows the head to slide to any position on the ruler and remain square.
