I used to have a square that was forged out of Bethlehem steel the back or spine was almost 5/16" thick while the inside was about 1/8" on it was the usual inscribing's for Hip, Val, riser, deg. of slope, and circle segment info on 1 side the other had rafter bracing cut angles and lengths per roof pitch angle. It was the busiest square I had ever seen with regards to the info on it.
    I don't have any idea where I got it probably in some auction and I suspect some sticky fingered worker relieved it from my kit

    Never try to tell me it can't be done
