Description

At the heart of the Woodpeckers 300mm Stainless Steel Square is the design of its one-piece core. This square isn’t determined by pins, rivets, screws or spot-welds like it is in many other squares on the market. It's determined by Woodpeckers state-of-the-art CNC milling centres. The core is machined square by a computer and verified square by a computer-controlled optical inspection system, which is capable of measuring angularity to 5 decimal places. The 1.6mm thick blade gets heat treated and tempered ensuring strength and stability. Finally, they're bead blasted to create a non-glare finish that contrasts nicely with the laser-engraved scales.

Like Woodpeckers Aluminium squares, the cheeks added to the central core are narrower, forming a shoulder that keeps your square registered to your stock even when you let go. You'll love using Woodpeckers new stainless-steel squares for lay out work. First, the scales are laser-engraved to a tolerance of ±.004". The thin blade puts the scale right next to your work, reducing parallax error. Woodpecker laser cut precisely-spaced scribing notches along the blade. Just drop a pencil into the notch of your choice and slide the square along the edge of your stock. With twin points for each notch, it doesn't matter whether you push or pull, you'll get a line perfectly parallel to the edge.

To aid machinery set up, Woodpecker laser engraved the end of the beam, as well as the edges. The squares stand upright without a hand, giving you both hands to dial in the height of your router bit, saw blade or dado stack. Also like Woodpeckers Aluminium squares, they stand behind these squares for the life of the tool. They’re guaranteed to be within ±.0085°. To put that in perspective, on the 1282SS, the maximum error you could find at the far end of the square would be about half the thickness of a human hair. If you ever find it outside that tolerance, they will fix it or replace it.

Guaranteed accuracy when it’s needed.

We factory build (to the millimetre) high spec passive wooden buildings using engineered timber products. Mostly, 300mm roofer speed squares are used but these vary in their accuracy, good enough for some jobs but not for quality control. The quality/accuracy of this square compliments our own aims. Used to check other squares and for crucial marking out purposes. It’s just a shame that the cheeks limit this 300mm square to a useable 260mm, as we regularly use 300mm stock. I would have purchased the 450mm 1812SS had it been available, the 2616SS would be unwieldy in the same situations. Thanks to Wood Workers Workshop for supplying.

Another great square from Woodpeckers

Please read my review of the Woodpeckers 642SS square, all of my praise in that review applies to the 1282SS square as well, with the exception that it does not fit quite as nicely in the hand as it smaller brother. Since using both squares for a few weeks, I found the feature I have used most and love is the ability to use the horizontal scale (along the stock face) to enable me to mark a position from which I can then scribe a line across the workpiece that is a specific distance from another such line. When I purchased the square I thought my main love would be the ability to draw lines parallel to and at a specific distance from an edge, but it has turned out that the ability to draw lines perpendicular to the edge of a workpiece that are an exact specified distance apart that I actually use more. Love it.

Service and quality

Expensive for a 300mm square but the quality and accuracy is second to none therefore in my opinion well worth the money . Very pleased with my order. Service and delivery always first class from Woodworkers Workshop.

Don't do reviews, but...........

Staggeringly good service, the shipment arrived from Canada at the Wood Workers Workshop warehouse on the Tuesday, went out by post on Wednesday and arrived with my brother in West Wales on Friday morning ! He's really pleased with it, excellent quality at a reasonable price, flip-out stabilizing tab very useful.

Fantastic all round service!

I've never used Wood Workers Workshop before but have been aware of them for a few years. After spending a long time researching router tables I took the plunge and ordered an Incra top, LS Positioner and router lift, complete with the larger AUKTools router motor. Everything arrived the next day and was packaged superbly. The products are really well made and the router is very powerful and quiet compared to my old one. I had one minor issue with the LS Positioner (an Incra issue, not WWW) and it was resolved very quickly at no cost to me. I would highly recommend this company and the quality products that they stock. There is nowhere else selling woodworking equipment of this quality in the UK. I will be back for more! :-)

Best customer service

This company has the best customer service I can remember receiving. I emailed a query tangentially related to the product and got a comprehensive reply by return. I ordered the product on.a Friday and it was delivered on Saturday. The Incra products are of course excellent quality. Only a shame they use imperial fasteners, but I did find I could run am M6 tap through the 1/4 X 20 hole in the sliding washer with no obvious I'll effect so I could fit a Bristol knob to the sliding extension adjustment.

The product is very good, very accurate. The service from Wood Workers was excellent, I was afraid to buy from UK due to custom fees but all went good in this respect. Thank you.
