The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

I bought a 4 inch iGaging Dual Square for use at work. When it arrived today, I took it out of the box and tested it. Good: - Precise. - The blade is the right size and the markings are correct. - Everything is square and the blade is tight. The Bad - Everything was roughly in hand. All edges were sharp. Apparently. No burrs were removed - All adjustments were jerky and required excessive force - The square was gritty out of the box. Ugly - All edges had to be sanded down with an extra fine…

Works but not as well designed and elegant as some other brands.

12/12/2020 iGaging 4" Precision Double Square. So don't remove the blade too often as you will have to wiggle it a bit when putting it back in. The part that fits and locks the blade in the groove is"T" shaped and stuck so you have to look there first to line them up correctly. Then after installation the head doesn't slide smoothly, again I think because it's well designed runs true, seems a little too tight at the spring hang.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Great double square

I was looking for a double square for my apron instead of the working square I was using. I didn't want to pay an exorbitant price for Starrett or Mitutoyo so I did some research and came across good reviews on this 4 inch iGaging double square. I bought it. Out of the box - all the other comments I've read were correct - the movements are crisp and the edges are sharp. So I spent 30 minutes using needle files and sandpaper to finish the edges; However, this did little to aid the gliding action

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Some mistakes

Good quality and suited my immediate needs

Despite some negative reviews here, many of them for poor quality, I decided to order this 4 inch iGaging square. I've seen the iGaging square compare to the much more expensive (and very accurate) Starrett. Recommended to use iGaging. I thought the quality of the iGaging square was excellent (and I liked that it came in a case). I already have two "standard" 12" squares. an Artisan and a Stanley. There is an easy way to check the accuracy of a square. Just put a piece of paper on the clipboard

Pros
