Most all the shops I worked in used these:

Squares, used to check other squares.


Home shops can easily get by with these:

On a normal budget:

would not 1-2-3 or 2-4-6 blocks be accurate enuf or at least close enough for hobby machinists ?

Can one you guys take a picture of one of these wrist pins? I imagine they would need to be out of a very large engine to be a useful size. Also, are they still square after grinding around the bottom end of a motor for a million miles?

I have some nice heavy pins at the shop. I'll shoot a photo next trip out there

This is all I have and the only thing I have used. As far as I know, it has worked just fine.
