I think you're going to have to buy the 3-T-square set. Have fun!

I picked up a few of their saddle squares a few months ago and love em, can't see any reason why I would need a t-square now.

If you are getting one , I would go with the 6". The 6" will do more than the 3" (duh ) and the 8" is getting a bit long for the width of the 'T' for drawing lines using the holes (have to be careful it doesn't tilt as you move it along). Then down the road, as funding allows, get the 12" T Square from Woodpecker's regular line. I use the 3 and 6 all the time.

They are very handy and real nice to use!

yup, i went for the 6" now i just have to wait for october.

since i already have the 1281 square, the 24" t-square is definitely on my list of future purchases. that looks like an awesome layout tool.

I suggest going for the 32". Before the 32 was available I had the 24 and it was amazing how many times I couldn't use it because I needed 25", 26" 28" ,etc.

ya see? this is where buying one of each is the way to go.

but unfortunately, buying the 24" t-square is the most i'll realistically be able to spend. besides, i never work on large projects. of course now that i said that, i'll wind up with a huge project one day and wish i got the 32 inch.
