Years ago I bought a tool called Circle Square from the inventor here
on Rec.Woodworking. Over the years it has been my favorite marking
and measuring tool. If anyone knows the inventor of this tool, could
you post back here with any kind of contact info you might have. I
would really like to pick up another of them or two. It has held up
really well, but I live in fear of the day I drop it or somehow
accidently break it.

Thanks

find, all my searches came up dry.

Search this group for "circular square bench stop".... the display
will be preceded by DIY and looks to be a post by JOAT. There is a
link in the post, but it either won't open for me or it not longer
exists. Not sure what the link is, since I can't open it, and, for
some reason, I'm having a problem inserting a link.

I copied & pasted the post, by JOAT:

I guess JOAT had it right: "If a thing's worth doing, it's worth doing

What are the Features of this tool?

I will try to get a picture posted of the tool this evening.

Is it such a complicated device that it precludes a text description
right away?

I find that my words are quite often inadequate for the tasks to which
I set them, and such being the case I will post a picture this evening
so that the picture can do so eloquently what it takes words 10,000 to
do.

Ok, I'm interested. But you should know, this better be some really
intriguing device that I'm waiting for and not some dinky piece of
junk, or you'll pay for it.

You could try to describe what you have. It may now go by another name.
In metal machining, some people use a precision ground cylinder as a 90°
reference on a surface plate. Let's say the cylinder is 3" in diameter
and 6 inches tall. If the ends are faced perfectly, then, when stood on
end upon a surface plate, the outer surface of the cylinder is at
exactly 90° to that surface plate. Is that what you are talking about?
If not, then what?

There it is, quite a handy tool. Hope someone else has seen this and
knows if the gent is still around that invented it.

Look very similar to one of these I bought awhile ago from Lee Valley.

Leon gave me that one for Christmas last year ... a REAL handy gadget,
and _very_ accurate due to the vernier scale.

One of those "wished I'd had this before" type gadgets.

Thanks again, Leon!

Did he give you the more expensive one? How good a friend is he?
