Customer Rating: Summary: Why don't you already own it? Comment: I used a framing square for years before I bought a speed square. What an idiot! In the hands of anyone except a genuine expert (when was the last time you saw someone use the 100ths table or work out complex compound cuts on a framer?), the speed square will do as much and do it faster. It's actually superior for 90 degree cross-cuts and, for general framing use, just as good for angle cuts. It will also keep its accuracy forever, unlike a framing square. The aluminum models are the only ones to buy - I can't imagine why ANYONE would buy a plastic speed square for the piddly difference in price. I have a 7" and a 12" and use them both all the time. Customer Rating: Summary: Definition of a square. Comment: In response to the erroneous definition by R. Harper. A square is a device used to construct a right triangle. (woodworker's). Therefore, a square has nothing to do with its shape. The Swanson Tool is one of the most used tools in any construction project, including my shop.
M.B.Moore Customer Rating: Summary: Honestly. Comment: This tool is awesome, but I must say-- IT IS NOT A SQUARE!
It is so obviously a triangle. Customer Rating: Summary: SWANSON TOOL 7-INCH SPEED SQUARE Comment: ARRIVED IN TIME FOR MY SON TO USE AT SCHOOL. Customer Rating: Summary: Better then sliced bread Comment: All hail the Speed Square, the King of Tools. I have no idea how anyone was able to build anything without these. Get the Swanson best $8 you will ever spend. If these things cost $45 they would still be worth it.
