> 3 dayCool little square from a small company. Youll probably reach for it more often that youd think, so many little uses.

> 3 dayI bought it, and yes, dimensions are stated on the product page ... I thought that in order to be useful this square needs to at least twice as big as what I received (out-of-square will be more detectable over a larger distance). It did not even occur to me that a square could be as small as this one is (thats why I totally skipped reading the size info and visualizing that in my head). Now that I am holding this square in my hands, I see that it could be useful in some tight-space situations and/or machine shop, but for woodworking one generally needs something bigger. Also, the color is waaay off. I ordered blue, what I received is more purple and darker that the product page shows. The color shown on the page is more appealing (to me) and also would make the thing easier to spot on ones workbench or toolbox -- thats where the color matters a bit. All-in-all, if I saw this product in real life / store shelf -- I would have probably paid $10, but not nearly $30 I paid for it on Amazon.

> 3 dayI just got this, and so far Im impressed. I honestly dont have a square that I trust to make a real comparison to, but it passes the pencil test, with corners closed even when I use a Mitutoyo12 inch scale in butted against the legs to extend the length of the drawn lines. Laying either leg on a granite inspection plate and shining a flashlight behind it does not show light coming through at all. And the legs caliper out evenly from end to end as well, with no measurable taper. Pricey, but you do get what you pay for.

Greater than one weekVersatile little squares. I bought a few, and have them attached to all my bench tools for a quick check before drilling/cutting. Versatile due to drilled holes and pins. Very convenient size, although you pay a price for accuracy with larger tools.

> 3 dayIt is impossible with this small diameter pins use this tool on side or upside down without losing the pins. Designer also made too large hole for a standard pencil. But this nicely done, blue piece is a nice decoration on the desk.

> 3 dayI had a little problem with the first one I received (2 of the holes werent drilled right, but the seller very quickly & easily corrected this. The new one is perfect. Ad both of them are dead-on square. The pins fit tightly, but not too tightly. Very happy with this.

Greater than one weekNot only is the square incredibly accurate but it also had the center finding feature which is incredibly handy. I keep both this and the small carpenters square in my shop apron.
