My 3rd combo square in the last 2 years. Decided to spend a little more and get this one and see how long it lasts. I've had it for a good 5 months. Still going strong. Cheap case but better than nothing.

Square. Solid construction. Ruler doesn’t slide when you don’t want it to. What more do you need out of a combination square??

For what this does, it does it extremely well. The materials used are a high enough grade to give the square enough weight and stability to keep ot from accidently shifting while in use. Came perfectly square, and continues to remain square after countless rule shifts and rule removal. The numbers are etched deep enough where they won't wear away any time soon and is dead accurate when compared to my other measuring devices. All in all, this performs as if ot cost a hundred dollars more. Well worth the money.

Receive today. When it arrived it had a cracked case at the one hinge...I'm a bit surprised however because this set was in it's factory paper sleeve that surrounded the plastic case, PLUS in a amazon shipping box. I'm thinking it was shipped from Amazon cracked and wouldn't be easily noticed being it was in its factory cardboard sleeve. Anyways that was easily fixed with a tiny amount of Crazy-glue. To the item itself this set surpasses my expectations for accuracy. It is perfect. I'm not a machinist, but bought for hobby woodworking and other daily uses, so as far as needing something along the caliber of a Starrett, this IGaging will more than surpass my needs. I also took the rat-tail to a few of the edges and this tool for a little handling comfort and after about 3 minutes it's perfect. Very satisfying purchase value wise.

My 6" Starrett kept falling apart, head wouldn't lock down. I had to keep backtracking to find where it fell off my bags.Went to replace it, and saw the iGaging had great reviews at 1/6 the price of the Starrett. It locks up, is more than accurate enough for woodworking, and arrived faster than promised.

I know that everyone wonders how this compares with Starett and should you spring for the starett money. The answer is no. It is good enough for all you need it for in woodworking: it is square, the nut stays tight, markings are etched, very readable, precise. For the price look no further. The only downside I can see is that for some reason you cannot order spare parts as you can with the Starett. If you can I could not find any on igagings website

Très bon outils et très fonctionnel

Well made precision piece. No sloppy wobble. Decent graduations. Recommended.

Excelente calidad y precisión.

Overall, this is a really nice combo square and a great value for the money. It has a nicely machined cast iron head and satin stainless rule that is easy to read. The center finder is a really nice addition as well and I like thatI really only have three nits to pick with this tool: 1) The blade is not 100% square to the head. When checking with my machinist's square, there's a sliver of light visible where the blade meets the head BUT I'm not able to slip a 0.0015" (1-1/2 thousandths) feeler gauge into the gap. For the size of this square, that's acceptable to me, and it's easy to correct with a tiny amount of work. 2) They got a little sloppy with the glue when they installed the level vial and there's a thin smear visible on one side of the vial, but it has no effect on the utility of the vial. 3) The center finder isn't "quite" 90°, however so long as the rule is centered, this makes no difference.Overall, I'm very pleased with this set and the quality is very good, and at less than 1/2 the price of a PEC or Starrett. Would recommend.ETA: After writing this review I discovered that one end of the rule wasn't perpendicular to the sides and was out of square by approximately 1/64". Since one side was long, I was able to fix mine easily and would still recommend this square.

Storage case was broken and 12inch combination square is not accurate. Checked against my machinist square and It is 0.7mm out in its total lenth.I am assuming its poor quality control or was damaged bent out of square from the impact via the cracked case .I have neither the time or patience to send it back to the USA so £60 in the bin

The review for the 12-inch, 4-piece "4R" combination square follows this one, which is a review of the 24-inch square.>> iGaging Combination Square Premium 2-Piece 24" 4R ----------------------------------------------------------------------This is an update. I had previously reviewed the 12" combination squares (which are both still working perfectly several years later) and since then I have also purchased the 6" and 4" double squares, and they are both just as spectacular as the 12-in combination squares. And the smaller double square usually lives in my shop apron because I use it on virtually every project I build. It's a life-saver and has prevented a great many errors on my part. (Hmm. Let's see ... "Yeah this looks OK, I'll go ahead and.... O wait maybe I'd better check that right angle again. Oops. Glad I did that..." It's that sort of situation.)Recently I checked my old 24" combination square. It was cheap when I bought it and the reason why is that the rule is stainless but the block is aluminum. It can no longer be made to hold it's accuracy on angles. I've had it for years and it's now past the point of being able to true up the right angle with a small file. The steel has cut into the aluminum enough that the eventually the angle cannot be trued [So much for the $12 spent at the local "bargain store" about 10 year ago. :-)]. Time for a new one.Today I received the 24" version and I've just unpacked it. It is absolutely gorgeous (if you like well-built tools, anyway) and while I haven't yet done a full check on its accuracy (45 and 90 degree angles, distances), side by side its first 12 inches match the full 12 inches of either of the two Igaging combination squares I already have. Affter I do a full set of checks (accuracy of both angles and lengths) I'll update this review. (That may be a couple of weeks - I have desk and router-table design/build/finish projects to complete first...)One good point here: unlike either of the two double squares and and one of the 12-inch combination squares this one came with its certificate of calibration. Another good point: this square is just as accurate as the well-known "expensive high-end" version, and to my eyes its finish is just as good, AND it costs less than half as much.Now to find a drawer long enough to put this in ... (the case is LOOOOONG, and I'm not complaining one bit. I will note in passing however: the Starret square comes in a carboard box (or it did the last time I looked at on and decided not to buy it.)>> iGaging Premium 4-Piece 12" 4R Combination Square ----------------------------------------------------------------------I already had one of these 12-inch combination squares, but it was the one without the angle guage or the centering attachment. I needed both and in my opinion (I previouly had the Starrett combination square and so far as I can tell, this one (a) is at least its equal accuracy-wise, and (b) this one is more heavily built and finished VERY well - and the ENTIRELY SUBJECTIVE impression of quality I get from this one is slightly higher than that which I got from Starrett. (I'd still have it but I had a friend who does woodworking as a hobby and when we did projects together he often told me how much he liked the Starrett. When he retired I gave it to him, and he reports that it still works perfectly, so I'm NOT knocking it).And yes there is probably no way that the fact that this one costs just a little more than a third of the price of the Starrett wouldn't influence my opinion.When I get around to it I will buy the 24-inch version of this square, and in the unlikely event that I were to need yet another 12-inch combination square I would definitely buy it again. I have also recommended it to friends and family.The only (nit-picky) negative point I can come up with about this square is that my first one came with its certificate of calibration (it was just the square - no extra attachments). This one didn't.But taking both of them to a friend who is a machininst, he could find NO problems with its accuracy (and he must have liked it because he bought one after measuring mine).It is highly accurate, very well finished, and sturdily built - and it comes with a very nice case.
