I have both, but prefer the stainless for any measuring or marking. I use the aluminum one to help square up a case. I learned early on not to use the aluminum one with any sort of scribing knife. Quick note on accuracy: the accuracy of the machined steel L doesn't really matter because you are referencing off the aluminum shoulder. Not sure what the tolerances are there, but they are pinned or screwed together

Jeff helped me out in deciding to get the 2616 AL and 1812 SS as an affordable balance on a previous Deep Dive to add to my 1281 AL square. But I as good of a set as it is, adding the 642 SS is necessary being the 1812 SS can be too large for marking smaller work at times. I will be adding it to my collection. Trust me, these are not "Eye Candy", they are precision tools that happen to be a complete joy to use. I used to handle these gingerly, but they don't need it, they can stand up to being used as everyday tools. Hey here's an idea, to help keep some of out of the doghouse with the wife, why not offer a discount on the Deep Dive item for the weekend you present it? I can hear it now "Honey, I had to buy it, it was on sale, you know, like the Spurdle you just had buy for you, your sister and mom". Yes, No, Maybe?

On the fixed blade squares the holes on 1-inch centers can be used to lay out shelf-pin holes, but their real purpose in life (at least, most of them) is to secure the blade while it is being milled square.

Am I missing something here, there seems to be some "smoke and mirrors" between accuracy and usage? Accuracy (and uniqueness) is claimed against the solid stainless steel core, but in the usage part the most convenient usage is shown against the cheeks, which are screwed on like others. To benefit from the accuracy of the stainless steel core, wouldn't one have to use it like the framing squares?
@WoodpeckersLLC3 жыл бұрын
The cheeks are spotted onto the core with precision machined pins. The guarantee of accuracy to .0085 degrees is to the assembled square. It starts at the core.

You talk about the angular precision of the core, but isn't what's really important the angular precision between the cheeks and the core, since the cheeks are the reference? So the fastening tolerance is added to the machining tolerance...of two separate parts.
@OFFICIALUND3 жыл бұрын
You make a good point (I have both the steel and the aluminum, and this had never occurred to me). I’m going to gauge them and see what the tolerance would be. My guess is that it will be well within what woodworking would require. FWIW, I bought the stainless steel models because I dropped the aluminum on the ground once and damaged it.

@@WoodpeckersLLC I did, the outcome is fair; nothing great. I'm waiting for a return label to ship back the defective square, then I wait for a refund which hopefully includes the original shipping, then I'll be ordering the aluminum 1281 instead. It's slower than I expected having to wait for the label, then for woodpeckers to receive the defective square, then for the refund to process. So it may be a few weeks until the situation is completely resolved. I expected better from a company that carries the prestige that woodpeckers does. I'm sure everything will work out in the end, this just left a sour impression.
