Starrett 9-12-4R 12-Inch Quick Read Combination Square Set with Cast Iron Head Review

It was tough for me to break down and spend the money on this Starrett combination square, but I am so glad that I did. I have used a few different combination squares in my 22 years of woodworking; Starrett has always proven to be the most accurate and last the longest.

I bought a $40 square several years ago and noticed it was just a little off from being square. When I put the Starrett square against my $40 square, you can really notice the difference of how far off my cheaper square is. I compared the Starrett square with my machinist protractor and they matched up. So I checked all the squares in my shop with the Starrette and all but one were off by around .75 degrees. I know they were not perfectly square before checking them, but it is now very nice to have something that is perfectly square so that I can properly set my machines.

This item arrived without an oil protective coating. I like that since I don't like to have to do a lot of cleaning before using a tool. Before I used it, I applied a good coat of Renaissance wax to help the parts slide well and protect it from rusting. This method of protecting my metal tools has proven very good in my high humidity environment.

The ruler has a satin finish and the lines/numbers are engraved. It is very easy to read and the lines are very thin so you can get precise measurements (unlike stamped or CNC'd rulers).

The adjustment knobs are also very easy to handle compared to my other squares.

The square arrived in a quality plastic case with cut foam inserts for each of the pieces.
