An ideal d i y tool practical and easy to use
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New
I ordered a Stanley Combination Square from UK through eBay because the shops in my region only sells the even cheaper (simpler) all-plastic version of the Stanley Combination Square (I must say, though, the straightedge part (ruler) are made of steel in both these versions). What I am concerned about is the sliding part that can be locked in any suitable position along the steel ruler. This locking mechanism consists of a bolt (also made in steel) and a nut. It is this locking nut that is the problem! If your lucky it will last a couple of days, but sooner or later this locking nut ( made of plastic ) will start slipping the threads when you need to lock the Stanley Combination 'Metal' Square in a new, suitable position.

First time out of the box, tried to hold a measurement to set door hinges but the plastic nut has stripped completely. Just no strength. I don't understand why the whole thing is mental apart from the nut which always takes the most stress. Especially when the item is completely new.
