Simple Tip Sunday! Brought to you by MasterCrap (not a sponsor, just what was in the garage). • Knowing how to use your speed square efficiently is the whole point of carrying one. There are plenty of “tricks” that these little guys can do. And none of them are taught in carpentry school (you’re supposed to use a framing square for everything). These techniques you will learn in the field from a seasoned guy or in a sink-or-swim moment. #simpletipsunday #tricksofthetrade #theydontteachthatinschool #speedsquare • . . . . #mastercrap #tools #handtools #toolsofthetrade #learnsomething #redsealcarpenter #carpenter #carpentry #woodworking #woodworker #woodwork #framer #framing #framersareadyingbreed #buildersofinsta #bluecollar #construction #byronbuilds (at Chilliwack, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnP54T0gW_x/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=6g3y374by1zm

The evolution of the speed squares I’ve carried. Left: Entering the trade, standing in @canadiantire looking at the wall of tools deciding what to fill my bags with and thought, “This one is only $7, perfect!” And for marking cuts for blocks, sills, backing it was. . Middle: Move forward maybe a year an I could see the benefit of scribes so back to the tool wall I went. My jaw nearly hit the floor upon seeing the $28 price tag. I debated not getting it. Turns out it was worth it. . Right: The @martineztools speed square has been in my bags for the past week while laying out apartment walls. I have yet to play with it on pitches and its features already shine. It was designed by a carpenter for a carpenter. It is priceless. #speedsquare #mastercrap #martinezsquare • . . . . #carpenter #carpentry #woodworking #woodworker #woodwork #framer #framing #framersareadyingbreed #buildersofinsta #bluecollar #construction #framersofig #toolsofthetrade #handtools #longpost https://www.instagram.com/p/BuscRlygUYg/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=oktka40jlczp
