200mm (8") German Precision Try Square by E.C. Emmerich |
This premium quality Precision Try Square by E.C.Emmerich is an absolute delight to work with. If you value precision and quality without compromise, this is the square to get. It will not disappoint you as the quality and solid feel of this square becomes obvious the moment you lay your hands on it. In typical German attention to detail and precision, this square exceeds the accuracy of our other Try Squares. The accuracy is guaranteed at 0.1mm over the full length of the blade. For purposes of comparison with our other squares, the accuracy of this 200mm square equals 0.0006" per inch of blade length on both the inside and outside edges of the handle as both edges have finely machined solid brass rub plates for protection and accuracy. This square also features a beautiful and durable rosewood handle secured with four brass (not with three as is more common) pins to a blued steel blade with a 200mm etched scale in 1mm graduations.

Perhaps best known for its line of Primus Wooden hand planes, this famous tool company traces it's roots back to 1852 when master craftsman, Friedrich-Wilhelm Emmerich, founded E.C.E. in Remscheid Germany. Back in those days, most cabinet makers made their own tools. Friedrich made such fine planes and other tools that his colleagues offered to buy them for their own use. Soon the founder and his son Max, had to leave their small workroom and build a plant to meet the demand for their tools. Today, E.C.E. is still owned and run by the Emmerich family of craftsmen in the same town.
