iGaging 4" & 6" Double Square Set 4R Steel Blade High Precision Woodworking

Good set of small squares for a good value. They are accurate, convenient, and good looking. The scale on the rulers is also clear and ready to read.

This is a 4.5 star rated double square set for woodworking and general shop use. At the $34.00 price point value makes this iGaging 4" and 6" set worth purchasing especially when comparing versus the Starrett 6" square alone for $80.00 - let me explain. I do own Starrett precision tools - 12" square, compass and center finder. These are high quality, highly accurate tools purchased in the 1990s and are outstanding in quality. However you have to pay a high price for it especially today in 2020 dollars. I needed a good set of squares I could use for marking mortise and tenon joints and doing layout lines for an old stand up closet I am refurbishing and for a table build project. Also to make blade/dado height adjustments on the table saw. I went on Amazon and researched Starrett and other brands - with sticker shock. I came across this iGaging set and read all the reviews, saw a few YouTube and Google search reviews too and decided to purchase this set vs the Starrett single 6" square at more than twice the price. My grandfather always told me to buy the best tools - that you can afford - and in some case the best is what you need. These iGaging squares are perfect for woodworking precision and general shop fix it projects. These are high quality squares. While the finish is a step below Starrett tooling as many reviews have noted, it is more than half the price. You get what you need with this set of squares from iGaging. I will definitely buy more iGaging branded tools in the future. Highly recommended for woodworking/general fix it.

In searching out options for my day job I decided to order this set for myself. I was skeptical just based on price and my experience with this type of square design commonly available at hardware stores. I must say I’m pleasantly surprised. What’s most important? THAT THEY ARE SQUARE! These indeed are square and any deviation I could measure was less than .001”. The edges of the rulers themselves are nice and straight on the set I got as well and they come in a nice simple plastic case. The only gripe I have is the small square once tightened to prevent the ruler from wobbling was nearly impossible to loosen. I had to carefully turn the lock knob with a plier because it would not come loose by hand. I took the knurled knob off and dressed the bearing surface on some 400 grit paper and flat plate then put a little paraffin wax on that surface and a little oil on the threads. We’ll see how it performs over time and I’ll update my review a needed. But all in all these are much nicer than your average hardware store square. Really accurate compared to much more expensive brands so these are a great value.

Great value for the money, do not expect super high quality these are not Starrett, but are so superior to the basic sets that the value is super. I use in the field and like the case they are in. For field work these are exactly what I wanted, better than the average, but not tool room quality. They hold their locations and do not slip. Took the scales and sanded with 360 wet dry paper to smooth the edges, they worked easier and felt better. For my needs these are great and like the purchase. I have tool room level of these in my shop and would not want to take a chance damaging in the field these are a great option for my field needs.

The first order arrived poorly packaged with a broken plastic box. Returned it immediately and received a replacement promptly. The new squares are a touch tight to move around but this will imrpove with use, tincture of time, a little polishing and some light lubrication. So far accurate and worth price. I am not an engineer so I can't measure the accuracy of the product out of the box .

I had 2 other combination squares that I owned but I was interested in a double square. So I tried these. I also noted that my 18 inch combination square from a big box store was noticeable not square. What surprised me about this purchase was how much I was going to like the 4 inch double square. It has become one of my favorite and most used shop items. I have no complaint about the 6 inch square but I have honestly barely used it. The 4 inch square is just so convenient. Both squares are square, accurate, and easy to read. The satin finish really helps with this. I love that the measurements go down to 1/64 of an inch. I would like to complain that the markings are hard to read, but it is not the device and rather my 50+ year old eyes. We don't like to admit to age but the device is great.

Extremely nice set. Fit and finish perfect. A joy to use.

Meh, moving the rulers is too stiff.

Just what i needed for some of the smaller layouts well priced quality tools . Well done Igaging . Arrived on time .

Buena calidad y precio. En mi caso, la precisión de la perpendicularidad es muy buena. Mejora la sujeción de la regleta cuando se limpian la tuerca y el tornillo, y una gota de aceite.

Sehr gut verarbeitet und angenehm im Umgang. Leider nur in Zoll. Aber darauf kommt nicht an. Zum Anreißen von 2 wiederholbaren Massen z. B. Bei Gratnut nervensparend. Im Vergleich zu Starett ein unschlagbares Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis.

Item arrived on the expected date and first rate quality squares for fine measurements to 1/64".

Bought this set to replace my misplaced 4” square that I use constantly in my machine shop. Excellent product, and accurate when tested against my gauge blocks. Am finding the 6” unit is getting a lot of use too especially when doing setups with 2 different measurements
