Quickest way to check your squares...
This is the BEST way to reset your square to 90 degrees after a drop. Simply follow these steps:
1. Butt your square against a straight edge and mark a line
2. Flip your square over and re-butt your square against the same straight edge
3. Re-align your square using your marking utensil at the bottom of your line
4. Without moving your square, move your marking utensil to the top of the line. If your marking utensil is on the line, your square is 90 degrees. If it isn't, move onto step 5
5. Loosen the 4 bolts holding your square blade in place
6. Move the blade over until it aligns with your line. You may need to make slight adjustments to get it perfect. Re-tighten your bolts
7. Repeat steps 1-4 to ensure your square is now a perfect 90 degrees
