This speed square is light weight but robust. On three occasions so far I've used this item as a guide for my circular saw to cut some timber - ( I'm making my own bathroom cabinet and my old mitre saw gave up the ghost a while back ) - All the markings on this square are superb - very clear. This is indeed a very well manufactured item. Although this is primarily a roofing square I can see it being used in other applications where angles need to be marked and cut. Very happy with this item.

It is the best most accurate speed square you can get and the blue book is amazing. This is not just a roofing square it gets used for everything. It is a incremental marking gauge, Angle finder, a fence guide, it will true up your tablesaw and such like to perfection. The uses are endless. All my other squares are now just gathering dust.

I love it. Ideal for square/45 cuts with a circular saw. Very robust and versatile. Use it all the time. My only gripe, and it is a minor one, is that the measurement scale could be better. An excellent accessory for any woodworker/other. Recommended.

I bought this as a square to mark out trunking and tray and unistrut so for me it`s a bit big. But it`s well made very robust and for a roofer this is just the job. Swanson tools are all the best quality. This will last for years and stay true because the material is so thick.

I wonder why I never bought this before... Only had it a week, and already found so many uses for it. Love the ability to use it as a Skill saw guide, that alone makes it worthwhile.
