00:00If you're tired of guessing angles and recutting boards you just ruined, this one's for you.
00:04I went through the best sellers and pulled the top 5 angle measuring rulers for woodworking
00:09all cheap money, all proven by thousands of buyers. Let's run them down.
00:14First up, the precision aluminum square, that red triangular ruler you've probably seen in
00:19every workshop photo. It's aluminum, so it won't flex or rust on you, and it's dead simple for
00:25home decor builds and design projects. Price? $7.92. With almost 5,000 sold and a 4.5 rating,
00:35this is the cheap, reliable one you grab as a spare or a starter square.
00:40Next, the multi-angle measuring ruler, aluminum square and protractor in one,
00:45with that mini carpenter square body and miter triangle setup. Best part, it locks in those
00:50odd angles for miters and trim work, so you're not eyeballing anymore. It's $8.22, and it's the
00:57highest rated of the bunch at 4.8 with 4,840 sold. If you want accuracy without thinking about it,
01:04this is the pick. Third one is the most interesting, a multi-roll depth measuring ruler with adjustable
01:10multi-angle marking, scribing, and positioning. It's a protractor, a marking gauge, and a depth
01:16gauge in one tool, which means fewer tools on the bench. $7.48, and it holds the highest rating
01:23here at 4.9 across 4,018 sales. For fiddly scribe work and repeat marks, that adjustability earns
01:31its keep. Now the budget king, the 45 degrees per 90 degrees plastic multi-angle ruler. Yeah,
01:38plastic, but it's still dead accurate for carpentry drawing lines, and honestly, at this price you can
01:43throw one in every toolbox in the truck. We're talking $2.83, with a 4.9 rating off
01:503,690 sold. If you just need 45 and 90 degrees done right and don't want to spend, this is
01:57the
01:57no-brainer. Last one, the aluminum alloy triangle square 45-90, it's layout protractor, built for
02:04engineers and carpenters who want metal in hand. Best feature is the weight and rigidity, it sits flat,
02:10stays put, and doesn't slide midline. $7.25, 4.7 rating, 3,435 sold. Solid middle ground if you want
02:21aluminum without paying the premium. All five links are down in the description, so check the
02:27current prices, they move around. If this helped, drop a like, hit subscribe, and I'll keep digging
02:32up the tools actually worth your money. See you in the next one.
