I've been debating purchasing a 12" Machinist's Square. Would be awfully
nice to be able to quickly verify some of my tool setups by checking, let's
say for example, a 12" plus crosscut off my sled or sliding miter. Or
verifying, with some exactness (is that a word ?) that a cabinet side is
really square with the bottom. I'm trying to really focus on accuracy these
days in my woodworking. I'm finding that it sure pays off in the long run
over the course of a project, to spend the extra time making sure your
setups are right on, and taking the extra time to verify at each operation.

Problem is, can I justify $60-100 for a precision square. Not a rich man
here - that's not exactly rounding error money for me.

What do you guys do ? Should I just grab my framing square and forget
spending the bucks ?
