Me too!

Yes, a video on rehab of an old square would be awesome.

I also vote YES to rehabing a vintage square ive got a bunch that could use it !!!

I’d love for a good video about rehabbing old squares

Yes please do a square rehab video. I have one of my grandpa’s very old squares that needs squaring as I’d really like to use it!

You're a great teacher Josh, always a pleasure to hear what you've got to tell us about. Many thanks for taking the time.

Release the video! I welcome a rehab video for an antique square. Thank you for making quality videos And I especially love all the antique tools you continue to use.

Wery nise wideo uplord 👍

You have so many amazing tools in your woodworking school! Thank you for sharing useful tips on tool guides.

Going back to these classics..👍🏻🎩

Thank you for a simple and easy to understand video. I have found woodwork and the tools are subjective to a persons taste, ability, and money spent. All of which make woodworking enjoyable. It amazes me how so many gorgeous wood items were made with simple tools. Keep up the good videos and printed information. Id love to spend some time in your school and learn more!

New to woodworking. Thank you so much for the lesson.

Good job on this video, very informative and unbiased

Dividers are great. I got a 12" vintage set, and finally figured out there was a micro adjust there all along!!! Also the gross adjust screw thread was stripped out, so I retapped larger, put a phillips screw in there, and more recently turned a thumb screw on the metal lathe for the gross and fine adjusts. Its a great tool. Squares are great too. Once I got the 4" double I really wish I had one in my apron when I was doing metal fabrication for work.

Thank you for sharing this knowledge with us Josh. I'd love to see a video on truing and rehabing squared if you get time!

Fantastic tips, Joshua! Thank you very much! 😃 I already have a few marking squares and so on and I recently made my very first marking gauges. 😃 It could be better, but well... It's beautiful looking and is going to work great for a while. 😊 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

Thanks Joshua for a great and informative video. A video on repairing an out of square try square would be great.

great videos and article! thanks for sharing

amazing narrative voice. warm cup of tea and Wood and shop video. => Zen

thanks for some good advice on these simple and very useful tools. I must admit that I am baffled at how many modern manufacturers churn out poor quality tools that are mere facsimiles of the antique or vintage tools . Squares which aren't square are just scrap metal .

I vote yes for a vid on rehabbing ....any tool.

I have an 18” combination square and find it very handy.

Thank you so much for introducing aspects of how to elevate the features, purpose and value for the money. You always bring up the hidden/ignore matters up in light.. Regards from Karachi. 💐

Wood and Shop indeed I am!

Your favorite sliding bevels with the decorative knobs were made by Disston.

Could you please explain what the angled end is used for on the sliding bevel gauge thank you. God bless

One other handy feature you can find on some spring dividers is a quick adjust. If you take the pressure off of them, the adjustment nut will slide freely to the deired position, then you can let the pressure back on and twist it to fine adjust.

Thanks First time viewing

great video, very usefull

Thanks Santos!

Yes pls about square to make it new for use 😊 .

Please do one on Ti-squares and combination squares and getting them back to square.

If your inexpensive combination square is out of square you may be able to bring it into squareness, as I did mine, by pinging the bearing surface with a machinist's center punch, just below the slot. Easy does it with the first blows or otherwise you'll overshoot.

Nice work I like and it's my ancestors work so I want to lrean can I?

Informative, very nice vid hmmmm

so you advice brands only if they sponsor you?!

You can do lots with surprisingly little tools for marking and meassuring.

My vote yes

A rehab video for try squares would be awesome.

Joshua/Everyone: I am considering the purchase of a Woodpeckers 1281 Precision Woodworking Square to supplement the combination square that I currently use in my woodworking projects. Woodpeckers claims that their 1281 is the most stable and accurate square on the market. The 1281 is currently on "sale" until early next month. Would you consider this square to be a good value and a worthwhile purchase for an intermediate woodworker?

@WoodAndShop

Nope, too expensive. I don't have one, and I'm able to get perfectly accurate joints with a $10-$20 square!

Now I am totally lost. Can we start from the beginning?

I bet precision matters more with harder woods. Softer woods compress to fit. Does this seem to be true?

@daveklein2826

No

For me to purchase a square it needs a published sqareness spec. Example a Starrett 12" combination is sqare to +/- .002". That way if you find it exceeds that you can take it back. Lee Valley is good at selling products that at least publish a spec.

Woodpecker tools do the same

I say wait till you find some old guy/wife selling his stuff at a garage sale. There's many gauges/saw etc. you will need depending on what your thinking is for that day. Anyways you will get a whole woodworking set that you can modernize as you see fit. Plus a lot of old tools are just made better.

Leave it to Beaver - you are swell, man.

That was super boring and I could hear your throat and I loved it.

Please give me a job your your workshop

I giggle when I see people using woodpeckers. For some reason a lot of woodworkers think tools will make them better? But I get it at the same time、 I looooove tools. That's why I buy old quality 👌

The titling scheme of this channel has become pathetic. Expansion of market has become more important than retention. Enjoy a rotating audience who prefers clickbait and doesn’t know your name; it’s who you’re fishing for.

Hakeem, this isn't a "tilting scheme". I have been meaning to make these tool guide videos for years, but they require an immense amount of time to make them, so I have postponed until now. Also, affiliate links are how I fund my work here, but I don't recommend anything that I don't believe in. And when the Coronavirus is over, you can expect more "normal" videos, like workshop tours.
