Testing Banggood's T Square: Is the Price Tag Too Good to Be True?

[@TheWoodgrafter]

So here is the latest video looking at the banggood T Square - is it really good at a great price, or a waste of money. Let’s find out. AND sorry if you saw the earlier version of this video, for some reason I uploaded a pre-edit version. Cheers Andy

As always, great information, detailed review. Really appreciate you sharing with us. Thanks!

[@TheWoodgrafter]

Thanks for that. Cheers Andy

I’ve got quite a few bits of Veiko kit and it’s all been excellent quality, very accurate and at a great price.

[@TheWoodgrafter]

Yes that is my experience as well Cheers Andy

[@paulmaryon9088]

Thank you Andy, another great review, think I'll order those now, a very useful addition to the workshop. Thanks again and keep 'em coming

[@TheWoodgrafter]

Cheers Paul, I have ordered the rest of the range, very impressed with these. Andy

Another great review and instructional video, thanks Andy

[@TheWoodgrafter]

Thank you Kyle. Cheers Andy

Great review, Andy. Had these been available when I was fitting out my shop, I would have not hesitated to buy them.

[@TheWoodgrafter]

Cheers Mike, Regards Andy

[@kaktus3175]

I do like the Veiko as well. I also bought some tools from Goingmake, which seem to have a good quality as well. After buying a T-square from Veiko I saw afterwards that they have the same tools and I assume they would be great value, too.

[@TheWoodgrafter]

So far so good, they seem really good at that price point.

I have 3 and they are great

[@TheWoodgrafter]

Thank you, Good to know, Cheers Andy

Hi I know you are getting back into KZbin after a break and was wondering if there are any build videos coming up? Thanks

[@TheWoodgrafter]

Hi Sam, Yes there will be, just clearing the backlog and getting set up again.

[@samrix5793]

@@TheWoodgrafter awesome looking forward to it :)

Great review, but I think they really sent you the wrong size there. These come in 300, 400, 500, 600, 760mm If you ordered the 600 they should have sent you the 600.....My 600 is somewhere in the mail, once I get it I can confirm myself that a 600 should ship. I own the imperial versions of these and the Woodpeckers, and while they are no Woodpeckers I would actually recommend the Veiko's to most people....almost no one needs to be spending $150+ for a square.

[@danielyoxall575]

I have the 600mm Veiko t-square and confirm it is 600mm long. I agree they have sent you the wrong one.

[@steveblewer1202]

Same here, my 600 is definitely 600!

[@TheWoodgrafter]

Thanks for this, that would explain it. Cheers Andy

[@37south47]

The link says Veico! Why you keep calling it Banggood? I’m confused!

[@TheWoodgrafter]

Hi Veico is the brand name Banggood are using for this product. I should really call them Veico supplied by Banggood. Sorry for the confusion. Andy

[@37south47]

@@TheWoodgrafter I never heard you say veico one time in the video!

[@dyoutube8127]

Have several Veiko tools. Hit and miss. The 760mm T Square I was sent was like a banana. 300mm and 400mm are much more accurate.

[@TheWoodgrafter]

Interesting, Perhaps a quality control issue, Cheers Andy

[@jronmanbuilds]

How do they sell a product like this for such a low price? Are they just taking a loss on every square?

[@TheWoodgrafter]

Hi and thats a good question, I doubt they are taking a loss, just very efficient manufacturing process, lower labour costs and probably an economy that supports and encourages growth. Also coupled with a much lower R&D cost, I think many of the designs are heavily infuenced by other succesful designs. Andy
