Hahaha i love this!! The owner from Benchdogs Uk hates that you promote Chinese tools when all he does is copy everyone else. ( Like you're going to put him out of business or something. Talk about greedy attitude. This is one of the reasons i don't buy anything from him) You are a true innovator and all your videos have paid off! Congratulations Dennis, you deserve to have your logo on the tools as does Peter Parfit with his contribution to UKJ. Bravo. I'll be purchasing this next week. You can bet Benchdogs uk is going to copy this. I can't wait to see your new designs. It seems like a natural progression. I've been waiting for you and will buy everything you make!!

A lot of the time, people automatically assume that because of where the product is produced, it must not be a good tool. From now on, those people should be pointed towards this video. Just the fact that a company not only listened to suggested changes, they took the advice of one of the bigger names reviewing tools, and they worked with him and gave him the credit in the design change. That is extremely f**king impressive.

The smile full of undisguised satisfaction on your face is priceless and completely understandable. By the way, please transmit my appreciation to Hongdui. It is clear that the employees understood that they are there for the customers, and one of them, especially a very opinion-forming, is worth taking fully seriously. Big, big bravo. For You and for Hongdui!!!! This is exactly how I imagine the perfect world: cooperation across country borders, across continents borders. Not conquest, but cooperation - it is simply more profitable. MUTUALLY! Perhaps this episode should be watched CAREFULLY by a certain group of very weird-thinking guys? Also to the east, just like China, but much closer...

Hi Dennis, I bought this the same day you released this video and recieved it yesterday. It looks like advertised and well designed. I have some further recommendations though.The milled-out pockets (part of the ruler connection) are fairly rough and sharp. Easilly improved with some light sanding of all sharp edges and not a big issue. Once sanded it slips together just a bit nicer (added some grease to prevent wear as well). The small alignement line (@6:43) is not present in my version... In the manual it mentions the dimensions of the silver T-part, with the 1" width and 45degr for using on saw tables. It would be very easy to laser-etch these dimensions on the parts (as the are etching you logo on it anyway!!!). Maybe give them a call again? Thanks for the recomendation! Best value for money tool I have in the shop!

Hello Dennis, really enjoy your videos, just so you know I ordered the metric version of this on the day the video dropped and it noted 23rd March shipping date, since order shipping has slipped to 2nd May 2024. Even looking if you order it today its saying ship by 31st March. So it seems Hongdui / Banggood are misleading customer on shipping / lead time for the item. Worth noting as you're attaching you name to this product.

​ @HookedonWood Dear @Denis, I've bought the square and 3 more drilling inserts just after looking at your video. Can you tell me exactly how close to 90° is your square ? For mine, on 500mm distance it is 1,5 mm out of square. I've verified it with my trusty square ( marking a line and flipping the square, i have the reference square exactly on the line, checking the Hongdui on the same line, it's out). Marking a line with hongdui and flipping it, it's also out. As a bonus, I receive mine without the center line mark on the base, wich is a shame... The support tell me to make the mark myself... and doesn't asnwer me for yet regarding the squareness... 200€ (with accessories) and I have a square.... that is not square. But knowing your precision, I was hoping you can tell me if yours is perfectly square (I assume it is because you checked it with your UJK square). Thank you for your answer

Hello Denis.. I purchased one of these shortly after your FIRST review. As soon as it arrived I found out how tight and difficult it was to detach/reattach the end piece. As I am not doing much at moment (post surgery) I put it to one side. Then I saw your review which now highlighted the very flaws I had found. And talked about a redesigned one. I tried to get a refund from Banggood on grounds that it was not really fit for purpose and to buy the revised version, but the cost of return (from Australia) is ludicrous and they closed the thread very quickly, after offering me a piffling amount in dollars in compensation .. ~$10 I think it was Are you able to prevail upon them to do something to rectify this situation?

Great Work Dennis! This Tool looks really awesome. At 5.55 you say that there are two drill modules included and at 9.55 you say that there are 2 marking modules included. But according to the product description on Banggood, there ist only one drill module and one marking module included. Could you please clarify that ? It should be clear if there are 2 or 4 modules in total included, because buying two modules would be equivalent to additional ~ 35 €.

Anyone know what size the drill guids are for the imperial version?

Wish they'd sell drill guides in imperial measurements too. Most of my bits are imperial so I try and only use metric bits when there's a good reason to. Hard to find metric hardware locally in the states for decent prices.

what would be the imperial sizes to 3,4,5 and 6 mm? and Is it common to have also imperial bits in the US or UK? Or has the majority metric drill bits? can you tell me something about it. Because I discussed it with Hongdui, but I because of lack of experience, I am afraid to give more pressure about decisions.

@@HookedonWood Thanks for asking! I am not sure about the UK but imperial bits are much more common in the US. I usually need to go online or to a speciality industrial store to get metric bits. Normal hardware stores don't carry them. I wish they did though as I do prefer metric sometimes. I tend to use inches for woodworking and mm for 3D printing. As for size equivalents, these come closest to a pure conversion: 3mm -> 1/8" 4mm -> 5/32" or 3/16" 5mm -> 3/16" or 7/32" 6mm -> 1/4" But I think it makes more sense to size based on the screws people will use: #6 wood screw -> 3/32" (I use this most of the time for 6 in hardwood or 8 in soft wood) #8 wood screw -> 1/8" #10 wood screw -> 9/64", but realistically I'd just use 1/8" #12 wood screw -> I never use screws this large, but you'd use 5/32" through-hole for #8 machine screws -> 5/32" through-hole for #10 machine screws -> 3/16" through-hole for 1/4" bolt -> 17/64" If I was going to buy a set, I'd probably like to see 3/32", 1/8", 5/32", 3/16", and 1/4". If they wanted to add 7/32", 17/64", or 9/32", it might not be a bad idea. But it's easy enough to drill a 1/4" hole and then enlarge it by 1/64" with the right sized bit, so it's not a requirement. I suppose I can do this with the metric guides as well!

​@@HookedonWood Turns out that if you order the SAE square, you get SAE drill guides! They're in 3/32, 3/16, 1/4, and 5/16.

Hi great tool. I went to the Web site. The description states you only get 1 set of drill bushings not one for each one. And there is no link to additional drill guides

Thanks for your reaction, they sleeping right now, but they told me they change the text early in the morning. They told me it will come with two drill guides and two drawing modules. The link to the drill guides I just place into the description. But I think that need as work as well. So, I expect they have this fixed tomorrow morning.

It’s refreshing to see a Chinese company that isn’t just stamping out cheap knockoffs. Beautiful tool and although $150 isn’t cheap, you can easily spend that much on an equivalent high quality square that does nothing but square.

I was just watching one of your older videos and wondered when will the Hooked on Wood version of the ruler be available. Little did I know that you just uploaded this a few minutes ago. What a pleasant surprise!
Are these CHEAP rail guide SQUARES any good?
