I actually am not using these for turning. Rather they are part of a modification project I'm working on pertaining to my beech woodworking bench. These squares are of great help and quality. Really glad I purchased them.

Good product. Just what I wanted and the item was promptly shipped and arrived intact. I plan on turning some chisel handles with this product and beech is the ideal wood to use for this project.

Looks Good To Me!
This was the first turning square I bought, mainly because it's very inexpensive and seemed like a nice piece to learn with. I'm a notch above a total novice, so take from this what you will, but I have no complaints.
