Try Squares from Johnson Level feature blades with hash marks for measuring short distances. Try squares generally consist of two parts. The ‘blade’ is the longer portion, usually made of metal. The ‘handle’ (or ‘stock’) is usually made of wood, plastic or metal. Try square is used to mark or measure material in wood and metalworking. The name ‘try square’ comes from the concepts of ‘trying a surface’ to check a surface’s straightness or correspondence to an adjacent surface and ‘square’ a 90°, or right, angle.
