Squarness Comparator

[rossbotics]

Very cool, Doug.

For the benefit of this newbie, how is squareness checked with this tool? Do you look for the same high spot reading at several different heights? Is there a ‘best practice’ for how you make the test?

Thanks,

Thanks Bob
Yes you are looking for a high spot, you rotate the squareness checker left and right up against the cylinder square watch the needle on the dial indicator it will get to a high point and then the needle starts to go back the other way, rotate the squareness checker till you find the highest point and rotate the dial on the squareness checker to zero, you are now ready to compare that to anything you sit on the surface plate for squareness. here is a video of how to use a squareness comparator.

Thanks, and hope this helps
