Good enough
Might be plastic, but cheapeat i could find that wasnt around $100. I mainly work with a 16" mechanical seam panel and comes very handy for saving time in squaring off a panel for a cut as most squares are 7" and you either have to eyeball 2", or extend the line with the flat part. With this square, you get the job done faster and fits in the same square pocket in your tool pouches. Made out of plastic, but i aint misusing the dam tool. I still have to eyeball about a 1/4" because it doesnt fully reach 8", due to the edge curvature it gets 7-7/8" mark. Might purchase a good one after this breaks, but atleast i know it fits the tool pouches almost the same. Sticks up just a little higher, but doesnt bother, for what it does. Super lightweight too. I write my measurements on the flat part and they erase easily with thumb

Nice compact square
Purchased this for just a quick job to square up my 3d printers and it’s obviously super easy to use. Everything is straight and square. Can be used to do multiple things but as stated I only used it for one thing. Made with great quality, seems super durable and can last long on any job site. Super light and not overly bulky and can fit in carpenter bag. Highly recommend for small projects around the house and can only assume it will work and last on any job site for years to come, obviously haven’t tested that claim. Great value for your money and definitely recommend

Good tool and hard to find locally
I have been looking for a speed square with a level for some time now. Not a bad price and works well. Don't expect it to hold up after repeatedly dropping it from the top of a 24' ladder onto a concrete driveway while you're sweating profusely and fighting angry wasps.

Cheaper alternative of metal speed square
It is definitely not metal speed square but looks like it is made with durable material for average DIYer. It is accurate enough get the job done. I would recommend this to anyone who is casual user and need to use 12" sppedsquare occasionally and don't want to spend money for expensive 12" metal speed square.

Works great for saw cuts on 2x4, 2x6
what a great tool. It's big, good for guiding my saw for cuts across 2x4, 2x6's. Very easy to use, hard to lose.

Great tool. Impressed with its utility. Just used it to build a lean-to shed. Made all the cuts very efficient and accurate and helped to keep structure square while nailing or screwing. Tremendous value for money. Sturdy design but light weight. Dropped it a number of time but no damage. The markings could be darker but not much different than metal squares with similar light markings. Worth every penny.
