Review on 🔩 MAGMICRO Precision Machinist Magnetic by FastCap by Ronny Prather

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Decent square for its price, not ultra high precision.

Ordered this micro square from Revain. When I received it I noticed I was having trouble setting the lathe to 90 degrees. I tested it and found that it's not exactly square. I contacted customer service through the FastCap website. They contacted me the next day and sent a replacement free of charge. The new one is better, but not perfect. Checking a square with "draw line, rotate, draw line" from the bottom of the base to the vertical is so close to 90 degrees that when it's off at all, it's less than the line width of my thin pen. But the deviation from the TOP of the base to the vertical is approximately 0.7mm over 4 inches of the length of the square. This would be good for woodworking or rough tool setting (like carpentry). Adjusting the cross slide of my lathe to the perfect 90 degrees is not enough for me. I give 4 stars because of the quick response from customer service and their sincere efforts to make me happy. You get what you pay for, and while this square is good, I should. I wasn't expecting to get a thousandth of an inch accuracy tool for $20. The magnets on the bottom are strong. The fit and finish is good but very sharp. Думаю, я прикоснусь к углы с наждачной бумагой с зернистостью 400, просто чтобы уменьшить вероятность отрезать палец.У меня есть несколько других продуктов FastCap - это первый раз, когда я был удовлетворен менее чем на 100%.Я бы без колебаний купил любые другие продукты They do.
