Presch Try Square 300 mm | Medium | Includes rust-free marking gauge (30cm), level bubble & marking pin | 90° & 45° | Carpenters square, Precision Square, Joiners Square, Engineers Square

Presch Try Square 400 mm. I bought this as needed a larger square as the 300mm regular try squares for larger projects was hard to utilise. . I looked at a lot on amazon and on line. from really cheap to stupid prices. And took the plunge on this Presch 400mm square. It has been a good choice and not disappointed. It is noted by others as German design and built. It is a German company. Designed in Germany, but don't think manufactured in Germany. They would have Made in Germany all over it. But that is not to say it is not good quality, as it is for the price. It has a good weight and feel, solid and thick long reference end to align with the edge. But wish it had flange or pop out clip to stabilise on the material edge as weighty. The metal rule is thick and doesn’t bend/flex like some cheaper squares or even more expensive. The whole tool feels like it will last a long time and not wear or damage easily. More importantly doing the square check drawing a line and then flipping and marking again. All seems square. Well mine is. Some note price seems slightly or on the high side. But this seems a well built product and I would score it reasonable on value for money as apposed to some brand name ones i have had that were rubbish and not SQUARE - you get what you pay for they say, but sometimes you don't! But here about right, maybe a few quid cheaper it needs to be. Overall i will say good value, well made and packaged. Robust, it's square and should last years. A good item to have in your collection. Would i try other Presch tools. On this first purchase, YES.

I bought this as it was a bit bigger than a regular try square and I wanted to draw lines for cutting flooring planks that were 30 cm wide and have since used it for several other little DIY projects. As you would expect from our German cousins the design and build quality is excellent, which makes it easy to use and hard NOT to get the correct angle every time (being slightly childish we also had a bit of laugh at the German name for the product which appears in big capital letters on the box - “ANSCHLAGWINKEL” 🤣). The handle is solid and thick enough to align well with the edge giving reference for the angle. The metal rule is thick and doesn’t bend or flex like some cheaper items I’ve used before, so it provides a good edge for scribing your line. The whole tool feels like it will last a long time and not wear or damage easily. The 45° feature an unexpected handy bonus (I know, I should have read the description!) I haven’t used the scoring pin yet but I can see that it could be really helpful. It fits tightly inside the handle, so you don’t get the feeling it will loosen up and drop out (and eventually be lost) over time. The notches that allow you to score a parallel line are also very handy, although won’t work well with a thick carpenter’s pencil (but that would give you reduced precision, so it’s not necessarily a bad thing). Perhaps the price seems slightly on the high side, but this is a really decent product and therefore I would score it well on value for money - you get what you pay for! If you’re hesitating then go for it - I would definitely buy this over again. Not that I’ll need to, as it will very likely last a lifetime!

Very well made, sturdy with handy little cut out nooks for pencil marking

Good but feel it could be slightly longer and also slightly sturdier. Somehow I always find this square is just too short for the wood I want to mark. Also doesn’t feel the most robust when marking a line which isn’t ideal when you want a line dead straight. Might be worth going more upmarket.

Good quality square.

Good product 👌

Great build quality and perfectly accurate.

Strong and quality product

Presch, es una marca que no conocía, pero que me ha sorprendido muy gratamente. Los productos de medición, como en este caso, las escuadras, son absolutamente precisas, perfectamente escuadradas, algo fundamental para carpintería y hasta parece absurdo elogiar una característica esperable de una escuadra, que esté a 90 grados, pero, hoy en día, con la inundación de productos chinos de baja calidad, es una rareza, y aún más si consideramos su bajo precio. La calidad de construcción es excelente, muy robustos y pesados, sorprende su peso. Es un producto totalmente recomendable para personas que quieran trabajar de manera profesional o hacer bricolage de carpintería, o en cualquier otra manualidad que requiera tener herramientas precisas.

Ich habe mir den Presch 400 mm Carpenter’s Square bestellt und bin rundum begeistert. Bereits beim Auspacken fällt die hochwertige Verarbeitung ins Auge: Die Markierungen sind klar und präzise, das Material wirkt stabil und langlebig. Der Winkel ermöglicht exakte 90°-Messungen und dank der zusätzlichen 45°-Markierung lassen sich auch Gehrungen bequem ansetzen. Besonders positiv hervorheben möchte ich: • Die Länge von 400 mm ist perfekt für Tischler- und Zimmerarbeiten – ausreichend groß ohne unhandlich zu sein. • Der Farb-/Materialkontrast erleichtert das Ablesen und steigert die Genauigkeit beim Anzeichnen. • Die Oberfläche ist rost- und verschleißarm — ideal auch fürs regelmäßige Arbeiten auf der Baustelle oder im Workshop. • Der Preis ist absolut fair für die gebotene Qualität und macht das Werkzeug zu einem echten Wert für mein Handwerks-Repertoire. Kurz gesagt: Wer einen zuverlässigen Schreinerwinkel sucht, mit dem man sauber, schnell und genau Markierungen setzen kann, trifft hier eine ausgezeichnete Wahl. Ich würde ihn jederzeit wieder kaufen und kann ihn vorbehaltlos empfehlen!

Prima product

Très bonne qualité

Gli ho fatto decine di test, in vari modi, oltre a quello della "doppia linea" e devo dire che risulta molto precisa. E' una quadra di un certo peso in quanto la parte in acciaio è preponderante e spessa. Devo dire che con questa squadra mi sento sicuro dell'angolo a 90°.
