JB: I don't need all the rafter scales and similar info on a framing square, just measurements and this does it well. Easy to read white on black, clear markings, straight and square when I got it.

Miraworld: Love the weight of it, and the thickness is a bonus when working with wood too.

DustyFadedSpaceship: Very well priced so I had my doubts but this is a great item priced low. I have been using it in the heat in Texas, getting rained on and left out. It has held up well and very much worth much more than I paid. It is thick and sturdy like you want. The numbers and marks are inset to it - well made like old fashioned ones costing much more.

Bob Adkins: It's accurate enough for my purpose. When compared with a known good square, it showed no gaps. When checked with an electronic square, it shows 89.95-90.00 Deg. When I laid it down on a granite counter, it wasn't flat. I put it in a vise to straighten it, and it was surprisingly tough to un-bend by hand. The metal has a little spring in it, which is a good thing. . The edges are rough. It left a bit of a wavy pencil line. So, I lapped it on medium grit sandpaper, just enough to remove the sharp edges. The anti-rust coating is a bit thick, but OK if you remove it from the edges if the tougue and blade. 1/2 star off for the slight bend and slightly rough edges, both fixable. Recommended!

KikoKiko: This Vinca 8 in. x 12 in. Steel Framing Square is one tough square. The square is steel which has some weight to stay in place and not shift. The markings are stamped and protected with an epoxy finish to protect from rust. The coating leaves a shiny smooth covering which reflects light and blackening the marks would have helped visibility. I use it mostly as a guide for setting cuts so the stamped markings are not as important for me, but the numbers are large and can be read just fine in good lighting. What I need in a square is true alignment and in this regard, my Vinca square is solidly accurate. Its a good standard framing square at a great price.
