Using a Speed Square as an Angle Finder

[@iaminevitable936]

Fantastic. We need this kind of quality content.

[@templebuilderscarpentry7043]

Thanks glad you like it.

[@scottbionicnerf8727]

I had to take a moment to let you know this is the most informative short I've seen in at least a month. You took time to explain geometry in a way that most could understand.

[@templebuilderscarpentry7043]

Thank you, I really appreciate your feedback.

[@user-bw5xf3yr3m]

This man is skilled 👍🏻

[@dabamanish7114]

You can tell that man loves his job!

[@YoungE591]

Keep putting out content we've been looking for you. Someone who can explain and straight to the point. Others explain a 5-minute video and still don't explain anything.

[@templebuilderscarpentry7043]

I'm gonna keep it coming. Thanks for commenting.

[@Jayrealright_]

This guy is incredible! Easily the best short I've seen.

[@templebuilderscarpentry7043]

Thanks Joshua I appreciate you commenting.

[@Jayrealright_]

​@Temple Builders Carpentry aye no doubt bro. I'm a shop teacher, I teach 12th grade Carpentry in NYC, and I'll tell you how much basic math has been lost within our youth. I have to spend time revisiting topics like converting fractions, decimals, and percentages, angles, reading a ruler and basic geometry. You are helping a ton of people by doing this man so thank you!

[@N1rOx]

That Temple Built had some FIRE behind it man!! Thanks bro this is handy when in a pinch.

[@templebuilderscarpentry7043]

You're welcome, Fatal. Thanks for commenting

[@MrRahasti]

Excellent, very well explained. Don't you wish they were all like this good.

[@templebuilderscarpentry7043]

Thanks for the feedback.

[@ColinThomasIsotti]

*Fastest way*
Full angle) 180 - 32 = 148
Cut angle) 32 / 2 = 16

[@templebuilderscarpentry7043]

I agree thanks for the feedback.

[@usman-just-browsing.]

So with the speed square you mark both woods at 16 degrees and can cut it with a hand saw or is the 16 degree for mitre saw? Im just doing diy at home and have a similar angle..just learning at beginner level. Thanks

[@lukemccann4061]

You forgot minus 148 from 180 to get that 32.

[@usa5439]

​@lukemccann4061 no you get 32 from the square

[@alanbennett2954]

Are you halving the angle?

[@zahidm5917]

Excellent 👌. Short and to the point. You captured the whole sea in a cup. I was looking for the answer of this question of calculating the angle for my garage DIY project since 2 days. Couldn't find the answer in any other video than this.

[@templebuilderscarpentry7043]

Glad it was helpful! Good luck on your project. Thanks for the feedback.

[@GreenwavesforChrist]

[@karenmann5099]

Thank you so much for sharing. 😊

[@templebuilderscarpentry7043]

Thanks for watching! I appreciate your support.

[@ColinThomasIsotti]

Also, if you go the other direction with the speed square, which would give you 58*, you can just add to 90* instead of subtract from 180* which is usually easier to do in the head

[@templebuilderscarpentry7043]

Yeah, that's right. I didn't think about going in the other direction. Thanks for the added breakdown.

[@leathercheerio1]

so you're saying if you start with the side without the perpendicular base and draw a line on the base and pivot counter clockwise ot would give you 58 with regards to this video and you'd add 90?

[@lorddyson6487]

Just bought a speed square and the amount of uses it has is crazy! Great vid mate 👍

Great video bro. To the point. Speedy might be the most underrated tool in your pouch guys. There is a reason contractors have 16 of them in their truck. You can do exactly what he just did with two of them and no pencil line, over numerous applications.

[@templebuilderscarpentry7043]

I appreciate you sharing your experience with this channel and with future carpenters and tradesmen. I would like to show that double speed square trick you just explained if you don't mind. That was a great idea. Thanks for commenting.

Dude you are awesome you should start making more videos on stuff like this I’ve have wondered for everything how to find an angle with speed square and this was a wonderful job on demonstrating it

[@templebuilderscarpentry7043]

Thanks Aaron I will be making more speed square and framing square videos . I appreciate you commenting.

[@nikolairubinskii6450]

Idk, the flat base of your speed square should throw the measurements off unless when you rotate your square you keep it parallel the other side and away from it by the thickness of that base piece.

[@templebuilderscarpentry7043]

I see what you're saying. Usually when I confirm it with the angle finder it's within 1 degree or a half of a degree of accuracy. But like you said if you hold it from the wall the same thickness as the fence you should be good.Thanks for commenting.

What if you have bumps and dips in walls. I’m still a bit old school so prefer to mark two parallel lines along each wall and draw a line through intersection. I have two sliding bevels to mark left and right cuts. I always cut a little bigger to allow for any deviation in wall and floor and trim accordingly with electric mitre saw.

[@templebuilderscarpentry7043]

Great advice. Thanks for sharing your experience.
