It's OK for rough cutting. But I tested three and all were off by more than an 1/8" But for Drywall work, that's perfectly acceptable. Considering you need space for the mud to do its thing. And it's fine for rough breakdown so you can fine tune it on a tablesaw.

My pleasure Mike! Thanks as always for watching!

I drilled and tapped a hole in end of the short beam my framing square and screwed a small, rectangular aluminum tab perpendicular to the beam, which supports the end of the square on the workpiece. This is a reasonable mod for me because I rarely use my framing square for anything other than layout work on sheet goods. That said, I do use it for roofing and stairs, but only once every year or two. When I am using it for framing, it's really easy to remove the tab, or as I more often do, loosen the screw and rotate it parallel to the beam where it's out of the way. Keeping it attached to the square assures I don't lose it. This is a dirt cheap mod that most of us can do with scrap, and with a tiny amount of planning you can make sure the tab rotates out of the way without obscuring any important markings.

I have several Woodpecker tools, and what you say about them is absolutely correct. I started my career as a drafter and was taught to no use a ruler or scale to draw straight lines, haha. I only use the WP rules for measuring. The center is great. I got a slide stop to make repetitive marks and is great for that. A word of caution to drywall T-squares. Check their accuracy. I have had a couple from a box store that were out of 90°. They get banged around easily in the store. I wish I saw your video on the aluminum square. Quality is great, and great for making 90° marks, but it's kind of limited vs. the SS one with marking holes. My favorite WP tool is definitely the Delve Square. The little 4" one. Although the holes are a 0.5mm lead buster, I use that gently. I replaced most of the trim in my old house and the Delve is great for that 1/4" reveal when nailing it up. It's trim, not fine furniture. Thanks for an entertaining and educational video Flynndogg! My first one of yours - subscribed! -Dave

Here is what i used in my whole career as a cabinet maker. First up one good quality you say machinist we say engineers square, this only got used to check my working tools their accuracy makes woodworking tools look rubbish by comparison. Two combination squares, one 300mm, one 150mm. A sliding bevel and a setting guage. Several tee squares all made in the shop. Steel rulers in lengths from 150mm to a metre. If I needed anything else i made it myself. I still have the first tee square i made as an apprentice nearly 50 years ago. I dont agree with everything you say but you made a great point about the 'red tools'. Every woodworking channel has them and they sure as hell didnt pay for them and hey it worked because you watched all these people and thought i need all this stuff and now you realise you dont. You should pack up all the stuff you dont need and send it back to them with a note saying refund please no longer required to get the job done! They are over priced junk in most cases and certainly not essential to any woodworker.

I use my woodpeckers squares to check to see if other squares are actually square 😂 the tolerances over length also seem to give them an edge over others I’ve used. That said, that level of accuracy is usually more than your average Joe is looking for, and most usually go for machinist tools at that point. My fav woodpeckers tool is their 4” saddle square. It sees almost daily use. There are alternatives for this tool as well.

If you want something closer to Delve square, DFM makes a great alternative. A good alternative to the T-Square would be to pick up a carpenter square fence from someone like TayTools or Lee Valley. The fence then would turn your carpenter square into the perfect alternative to the larger aluminum squares with the the lip and the T-square. A different alternative to the T-square would be a drafting but you run into the issue that it does not have the lip like the Woodpecker version.

You are absolutely right with the alternatives. Woodpeckers is not trying to reinvent the wheel. The extra features are nice but you buy woodpeckers tools for their accuracy. That’s why they’re expensive, everybody knows this. You are not getting 0.001” squareness over 12” with Swanson or empire. I don’t own any woodpeckers tools but I would 100% like to get the 1281. Having a square that I know is square and Carrie’s a life time warranty is well worth its price. I’ve already in my short life have spent way more on cheap squares that I coulda bought some woodpecker tools and I’m a fool for doing so.

For finding the center of a board just angle the ruler to a point divisible by 2 or however many segments you need. For instance if you have a 7 inch board and want to find the center place your ruler so that zero is at one edge and 10 inches is at the other edge and mark at 5 inches, that’s your center

I attach a lip to my framing square with a spring clamp - no droop and costs zero. I do not scribe lines with a square of any kind. I just mark the distance twice and use a straight edge to scribe the line. The advantage of doing it this way is I do not need a perfectly straight and smooth edge to obtain a straight scribe line.

A plain Drafting T-Square works well. They come in all sorts of styles, and they are reasonably priced. If you want to find a center or divide up something into equal parts all you need is an accurate rule and a straight edge. To find the center lay the rule on an angle across your piece of wood. Adjust the rule so that it sits with whole numbers easily divided by two rest on each edge. Say you have a piece of wood that is 3-11/16" wide and you want to find the center. Place the 1" mark on one side and then the 5" mark on the other, so you have 4" of rule lying across the wood. 4"/2=2", 2"+1"=3" now place a mark at 3" and you have the center. Do this again further down your piece of wood. Draw a line between your two points and you have a centerline. If you want to divide a piece of wood into thirds set the scale at 1" and 7: along the edges. 7"-1"=6", 6"/3"=2". Place marks at 3" (1"+2") and 5" (1"+4"). You now have divided the piece of wood into thirds. You find the center by drawing a line across your piece of wood square to the edge. Measure in a 1/4" from each side. Take a compass and open it so it is wider than your piece of wood. Strike two arcs, one from each 1/4" mark. Where the two arcs cross is the center.

Hey, if you’re curious about Woodpeckers or any other expensive brand, but hate to waste good money, then save up, buy a small square or ruler or whatever and try it out. For myself, they’re not worth it, but then I don’t have money falling out of my pockets. If you don’t either, I would probably go to one of the big box stores or your local hardware store and check out their stuff. Squares are easy to check. Just grab one, set in on the shelf, mark a line, flip it over and check it. If it matches the line and isn’t flimsy, buy it. As far as tapes and rules, don’t switch between them during a job. Use the same one to mark for a cut as you did to measure for the piece. Doesn’t matter if it’s off a bit because everything will be off the same amount. I would rather spend more on my power tools. I don’t think it matters if your line is perfectly placed and square if you have a crap saw that you can’t keep on that line, or a drill press that wobbles.

@@FlynndoggWoodwork Thanks for that. I’m sure Woodpeckers and the other top of the line products are pretty good, at least they better be. For someone running a woodworking business and especially with employees, they would want consistency throughout the shop. But for the hobbyist or a one man band woodworker trying to make a living or extra money, you got to watch the overhead. The tools have to pay for themselves. There are good quality squares and rules out there that don’t cost an arm and a leg. I think a triangle square is the way to go. With those if you find one that’s square and made with good thick metal, it will stay square. The T squares that are riveted together can get sprung or bent or the rivets get lose. And you don’t want to drop it on the floor and step on it or drop a 2x10 on it when it cost a couple hundred bucks. Again, save the money for a good table saw and get a good fence and miter gauge for it. The fences are usually decent with the higher dollar ones but the miter gauges tend to leave a lot to be desired. And give it a good tune up. Even the good ones may not be set up correctly right out of the box. Square the blade to the miter slots, align the fence to the blade, turn in the miter gauge. Might find out that it was the saw screwing up the cuts, not the measuring tools.

Great question JVBL1! I don't have any experience with the Empire T square but would love to check them out. I'm guessing its a reasonable solution as well! Thank you so much for watching!

@Flynndogg Woodwork It really boils down to what level of precision and accuracy you need. If you are doing fine woodworking and want to ensure you really are square you can't beat woodpecker precision of 0.001" per foot of holding square. The cheap cast speed squares can't hold that level of precision. You'd be lucky to hold .020" per foot of squareness. That adds up quickly as you increase your distance away from your edge. A great alternative to Woodpeckers with similar precision and accuracy would be igaging brand of precision tools. They hold approximately +/- .005" of squareness per foot for their equivalent Develve squares for a fraction of the price of woodpeckers.

Great great point creamysbrianna! I agree with you, when I'm doing something with very high precision I almost always reach for my woodpeckers or woodraphic. I think the point of this video for me was to show some cheaper alternatives to those who maybe can't afford the higher end tools or are just starting out and are looking for some alternatives. Igauging is a brand i've been very interested in checking out over the last few months. I've heard some really good things about them. thanks for sharing i really appreciate it!

I have a Swanson combination square. Unfortunately it was not perfectly square when I received it, but it's easy to adjust with a file. I see no reason to spend over $100 on a combination square when it's going to come out of square with general use, and you're going to have to learn how to square it on your own anyway. I also got a Swanson speed square with the combination square, the same as in your video, and it's actually square, so no complaints there. Both are a great value and there isn't a lot of worry with damaging them due to their cost.

I'm 100% with you. I do think its a roll of the dice with some of these tools with complete precision and accuracy, but brands like woodraphic have really impressed me so far. You definately get what you pay for. I think the key is you need to test your measuring devices as soon as you get them. Are they square, do they line up with your tape measure etc. Great point bamsebrumbamsebrumen!

An inch, is not an inch, is not an inch. Straightness and square are not the only measures. Continuity between measuring devices is what led me to buy a FEW nicer measuring tools. It is crazy how much variance one can have between measuring devices. Nicer measuring devices are much more consistent.

I agree with everything you said in your video. If you can afford a WP tool, then go for it. But in the end, I think that the only reason WP is still around is their KZread influencers. Are they rediculously accurate, yes they are. Do you need accuracy to .001? That is for you to decide. Just remember, it doesn't matter how accurate your measuring tools are if your cutting tools are not accurate. For me, I would spend my money on quality power/hand tools before I invested $300 in a square.

100% agree with you! I find most of the time when I'm building something I can't even cut to the accuracy of woodpeckers.

Please don't hate me, but the only "precision" you need with wood work is "square / angle". Length accuracy is pretty much immatreial (within reason). The dimensions of our work changes by variations in temperature / humidity / time so as to make the famed accuracy of the W'Pecker imaterial.

Great video, very informative, thanks for sharing... I agree 100% that Woodpecker Tools are just way too expensive for what they are and there are way too many alternatives that are almost as good @ a fraction of the price. Agreed, not bashing Woodpecker but you can't say the truth without it sounding like we are bashing Woodpecker. What Woodpecker needs to realize is "when an item is priced right, it SELLS..." and given that their cheapest tool is easily over 100 USD that's not good for the average Joe. Your Amazon links eventually landed me with the Milescraft Brand and I'm here to say they are very reasonably priced. I almost bought a few tools just now because of the price alone; not that I'd EVER use these tools they were just priced that reasonably that I WANTED TO BUY THEM... Milescraft has a drill guide from 1/8th to 1/2" for under 7 USD, Amazon Prime Shipping of 1 to 2 days, and it had brass inserts, I mean, seriously how reasonably priced is THAT??? Milescraft offers a plethora of tool options with many that will rival Woodpecker; and even if they're not as good, the price is right and makes it worth investing in... Cheer's...

No you don’t need fancy, expensive tools. Sure they look cool, but how much precision do you really need? If you don’t have accuracy in you cuts, drilled holes and assembly, then it doesn’t matter how accurate the line or measurement was. These are like the 5 step procedure to square up your miter gauge or crosscut sled. Sure it’s nice to get it as perfect as possible, but to strive for .001 of an inch. Look at ruler with 1/64” increments. Pretty small. If you can get the saw to that in say 12 inches, then that’s 1/8” in 8 feet, which you can’t even cut with a miter gauge or crosscut sled. As far as squares, hold it on a straight edged board or workbench, strike a line, flip it 180 degrees and see if it is still on the line. I do that at the store. Use the shelf or a counter top or whatever you can find that’s straight.

I'm not going to argue that Woodpecker isn't the best in accuracy. For sake of argument, I'll consider that nothing is as accurate, much less more accurate. But, when I see YT woodworkers using them when they are NOT being promoted by them, it shows me that they are full of themselves. Why? Every one of them makes mistakes and will be first to admit that the best woodworkers are best because they can "cover their mistakes". Even with these precise tools, they fail! Just like the rest of us and like every beginner, but maybe not to the scale a beginner's mistake. I don't think there are any NASA or Space-X engineers teaching us how to make the perfect table, cabinet, cutting board, etc on these wood-working channels. What I do see being taught are great woodworking skills on how to make repeatable cuts, get square angles and parallel sides. I've never seen someone tell me how to shave off or add 1/8 of an inch so my table top is perfectly square. Instead, they say things, and I'll quote ":Ted Baldwin" from Gwinnett Woodworker's Guild, "If it looks square, it is square." Wood shrinks, swells and bows more than the precision of these tools on a daily basis in most shops! The first rule my hobby woodworking friends taught me about woodworking is "use the same tape measure for all measurements." The next rule I learned is from You Tubers, "to fit the piece, creep up on the cut." The third thing is make sure your square is square. As long as your square is square, even with the most inaccurate tape measure, you can build a square box and fit it into a precision hole just as well as you can using the Woodpecker. Convince me that I am wrong! The most accurate I can build anything is determined, not by the accuracy of my tape, but how accurately I can cut, shape or connect pieces. If you want to see how to build projects without any ruler at all, check out Ted Baldwin at Gwinnett Woodworkers on KZread. His videos are 5-10 years old, and he doesn't know I exist, but every beginner needs to at least watch his two safety videos. As you learned, Woodpecker tools may have their place, but that isn't in the hands of beginners. If anything, that much precision will be detrimental to the confidence of beginners. They need practice, not precision!
