SWANSON S0101CB Speed Square Layout Tool with Blue Book and Combination Square Value Pack

Excelente producto

Purchased in April 2021 - so I've had this combo for a little less than two years and this has been perfect for my DIY needs. The speed square mine came with was true as far as I could tell and great for use on rough lumber 2x4's, plywood etc. It's not a machined piece of perfection but it wasn't meant to be - it's straight and angles are accurate for those purposes. If/when I need to measure with accuracy to the nearest millimeter or .001th degree I wouldn't use this or probably any other speed square. I'd use a real measuring ruler and/or the combination square. If I ever needed a speed square with more precision I'd probably take a look at the DFM, Milwaukee or Woodpeckers speed squares, but I don't see that day ever coming.As for the combination square, I don't know if mine came true or not. I assumed it was for several months before checking. By that time, it was off a little so I quickly tried to true it up. There are plenty of YouTube videos out there - but one note of caution: DO NOT FILE DOWN THE REST TABS WITH COMBO RULER like one of the youtubers suggests. Sure it's a steel ruler, but you could round off the edges in the process. Don't ask how I know. Anyway, I was in a rush so I got it close enough. More recently (January 2023), I've had time to actually sit down, take my time and get it perfectly square, using the parallel line test. The whole process took maybe 20 minutes at most and all I used was small strips of rolled up 150 grit and 400 grit sandpaper. As I got closer to perfection I scraped less and less and checked more frequently. Again, no more than 20-30 minutes and now I have a perfectly square piece of equipment. My ruler is straight and the markings are clear so I can use it for relative measurements. But I mostly use it to draw or cut 90 degrees, so I wouldn't care if it was a rhombus parallelogram or whatever else for my purposes. I am not marking it down because I had to true it up - unless you are willing to spend way way way more for a combination square, they all eventually will need to be adjusted. I'm just super glad that I can actually true it up if/when I need to and get it as close to perfection as my eyes can see so easily. If yours doesn't come perfectly square - take 20 minutes to learn how to do it, you will have to at some point anyway.

It was square and worked well. It is solid aluminum and very useful. pretty hard to mess up a speed square. The high accuracy square was very helpful for more precise products.

Seems like a very good deal. Both tools came square (tested by drawing a line and flipping the tool to check), which is probably the most important need when you're looking at a square. The speed square seems nice and I like the groves to help you scribe across a board. The combination square is actually pretty low quality, but works. The graduations seem painted on I don't feel like they've been etched in much if at all. The slide action is pretty sticky out of the box and the edges may need a light sanding.I'm happy with both tools as they seem like they'll last for a while and will be functional for me as a non professional hobbyist.

Para mí Amazon es la super mejor tienda online que te puedas imaginar , Excelente mi favorita Y con respecto al producto Swanson con respecto a la calidad excelente 👍👏🏼
