Review on ๐Ÿ“ Starrett 11H 6 4R 6 Inch Combination Wrinkle: Precision Tool for Accurate Measurements by Phil Kowal

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Beautiful combination scarf in pocket size.

This is a very handy little combination box. It's the perfect size to fit in my pocket so I can always have it handy to check a measurement or make a quick mark. A spirit level and scriber are built into the handle, but I didn't use them much. I prefer to use my spirit level or pocket marker because that's how my brain works. I haven't used many brands of combo squares but I can tell you they are way better than the imperial ones you can buy at your local store. But you get what you pay for (not sure if it's 10x better but seems like it could last 10x longer, just need time to know for sure). It glides much smoother and the weight feels really good like it's not moving as I make my mark. It's also true enough for everything I do right out of the box that I haven't developed the kind of wobble I get from combo aluminum head quads. It looks like a tool that will last a lifetime and if you're a half serious hobbyist carpenter like me you won't be dissatisfied with this tool.

Pros
  • The best in its niche
Cons
  • I will add later
