    Default Excellent combination square for arthritic hands

    I've been using this Kapro magnetic combination square for a couple of years. The blade slides and, along with the scribe, is held by magnets in the base. It is so much easier on my degenerating thumb joints than having to release and tighten the nut on standard combination squares. Only disadvantage is that it can pick up unwanted items like nearby nails.

    Not sure where I got it but I thought I bought it in store at Total Tools, but it seems they don't list it now online. Fair variation in online prices so check out the range if you're buying one.

    Thanks for the recommendation. I've got a Kapro torpedo level from a yard sale, and it seems a quality tool.
