Overview

This simple accessory prevents your tape measure from slipping off the corner while measuring diagonals. The 90° inside corner securely straddles any outside corner, and rotates 360° to accomodate any rectangular object. It attaches easily to your tape with a single, powerful rare earth magnet. Use it while assembling drawers for a perfectly square batch. Also great for cases, frames and more. Slot for tape hook measures 1-1/8" wide. Made of durable plastic.

Works great on most applications but not so well with the clamps we use for glueing up doors needs to be a little narrower

Now this is a cool simple fix to a very old problem. I purchased 2 so I could give one to my son-in-law.

Thought this would be helpful and handy item to use when checking for square on large cabinets. However, loose fit makes it awkward to use. Would not buy again. Kind of a gimmick I didn't really need.

I actually want to use this in deck construction and not small projects. This should also allow me to measure my corners on my own, which is a great plus to me.

While the idea of this product...
While the idea of this product is a good one I can only rate the item as average. The reason is that mine does not stay on the corner when measuring longer diagonals, something I was hoping it would do when working alone. I will try gluing sandpaper to the inside edges to add grip but for now I limit working with it only on diagonals I can actually reach to hold it in place. It does provide more accurate readings but the limit on length is a problem.

Great idea but it kept slipping...
Great idea but it kept slipping off the corner, so I had to have someone else hold it. Needs longer wings or rubber pads or something to hold it on the corner better.

Way to go to check Square.
This is by far the easiest way we have found to check square accurately especially over long lengths like we need for large door panels and windows. I only wish they would make one that could be used for the inside square measurements as well.

Very handy
I keep one of these in a drawer, magnetically attached to a 12-foot, Stanley rule. The combo is perfect for checking the squareness of box-like things like drawers and carcasses, and is superior to a helper that is not both personable and always available.
February 14, 2015
Very Handy!
This thing is handy! Not for getting exact measurements of an angle because it offsets the tape slightly from the corner, but perfect for checking one dimension against the other!
