You mentioned the speed square in another post too. I'm curious: are those
gadgets of any use to woodworking tasks in general, or just framing?
Framing squares are handy in the shop, for instance.

I have a couple of the small(7"?) ones from aluminum that I use a lot. Quick
layout for a 90deg. cut in anything, also you can lay out a miter angle real
quick if you don't have the miter saw out and prefer to leave that pesky
miter gauge @ 90deg. on the tablesaw.
