Literally 5 minutes after getting an email flyer from Lee Valley featuring their new Veritas pocket squares, I got one from woodcraft featuring their new Pinnacle mini carpenter squares which look awfully similar. Coincidence?

Bigger than you know….we have been running rules for weeks now too….building inventory before release. Will post a pic when back in town. Ours are about 2 months later than planned.
Squares…..for us, just two additional sizes. Have been selling the smallest for more than a year. All 3 sizes were offered to export partners last fall.
Cheers,
Rob

Back in the office - here is our rule.... running 12", 18", 24", and 39".
All 2 1/2" wide - graduated RTL on one edge, and LTR on the other. Produced in metric and Imperial.
Cheers -
Rob

Nice! And probably just about the right size to fit in a stocking

Should be a few weeks - running now. Our new CNC saw was late arriving (second is late too), anodizer was backed up, and then orders for multiple product arrived all at once (squares and rules). My best guess is we should be mid- end-November. There will be an intro offer on sets as well.
