Better than most. Review: Good for drywall use, bad for woodworking - This square isn't square. It's off by 1/32" at 16 inches or so. So the inaccuracy will continue to grow as you go further out. So why do I give it 5 stars when it isn't square? Because for drywall, that level of accuracy isn't required. You *need* gaps for mud anyway so what does it matter. I took a chance and ordered to see if I can make my tracksaw's crosscut to be more accurate. And it looks like it won't be accurate enough for that. I can't ding them on an application it wasn't designed for. It seems solid, there are multiple rivets at the attachment point, and the extra thickness is much appreciated. It's just not accurate enough for woodworking though. ## Features - Durable Aluminum Construction: Built from 3/16-inch thick extruded aluminum, this drywall square 48 inch is designed for heavy-duty use.

Better than most. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good for drywall use, bad for woodworking *by H***E on June 23, 2021* This square isn't square. It's off by 1/32" at 16 inches or so. So the inaccuracy will continue to grow as you go further out. So why do I give it 5 stars when it isn't square? Because for drywall, that level of accuracy isn't required.

The rudimentary function of this product is a failure. Would like to see countersunk bolts or something similar holding it square. Amazon also packaged it like absolute crap. Was in a huge box with no packing material, so that's likely why the rivets are loose. For $50 go to ace hardware and see what you're buying. Regret.
