Made using hard chrome plated stainless steel hardened to Hv320+ for the perfect balance of stability and springiness and no worries about rusty fingermarks.
Japanese carpenters squares are flat, they are used in the same way as a framing square, with one leg hung over an edge with its face acting as a stock.
Adding a 90/45 degree stopper improves on the versatility of Shinwa's Japanese carpenters square: you can use it for marking parallel to an edge or at 45 degrees, as a caliper, or turn the stopper the other way around and use it as a height gauge.
Shinwa Carpenter's Square Stopper - Metal - 20mm to suit this square is not included and is sold separately.
- Squareness less than 0.1mm/100mm
- Conforms to JIS B7534
- Made in Japan
