DeadNutz Square 3-1/2″

The DeadNutz Square is machined to perfection using the latest technology, giving rise to its name. “Dead nuts” is a phrase for absolute precision. The term comes from the age of analog scales to describe where the measuring nut for the scale was set to read zero – the basis from which all other measurements are taken – precisely, “00.” To ensure the DeadNutz Square lives up to its name, Woodpeckers uses Wire Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) technology that erodes the metal at the micron level, resulting in incredible precision and quality.

What sets the DeadNutz Square apart from its competition? Wire EDM manufacturing produces a level of precision that the woodworking market rarely experiences. For one, it is made from one piece of 3/8″-thick stainless steel, meaning there’s no opportunity for assembly error between the blade and the base. Because nothing is joining different materials or reference surfaces together, you can be sure there will be no warping. The edges are beveled for precise reference against the blade of your equipment, highlighting any light shining through. This, paired with the firm purchase of the flat base, will give you the utmost confidence that you are “dead nuts” square.

The DeadNutz Square is perfect for calibrating your equipment. Our wire EDM method allows each tool to be machined and inspected to a tolerance within .002⁰ or .0002″ (yes…2 ten-thousandths). Bring that confidence to your shop setup, whether you are setting the jointer fence or bringing your compound miter saw back to 90⁰. It also makes quick work of aligning your table saw blade to a perfect 45⁰. At 3-1/2″ tall, the DeadNutz Square is extremely versatile and can be used with everything from a scroll saw to a table saw.

After calibrating your equipment, quickly check that your cuts are spot on. The DeadNutz Square also provides an inside 90⁰ reference for quick and easy checks of your workpiece edges.

Simply put, the DeadNutz Square has no equal and will be the most reliable square in your shop!

Like all Woodpeckers products, the DeadNutz Square is made in Strongsville, Ohio, just south of Cleveland.
