Ultimate MFT / railing squaring tool?

[NVA_WW]

Today I used the 26" square to line up my 55" guide rail and it worked like a dream.  It is safe to say that Woodpecker is my second favorite brand right next to Festool!  I'll be heading to my Woodcraft tomorrow morning to purchase more Woodpecker stuff (branded Pinnacle at Woodcraft) since they are having a 15% off sale for Labor Day.

Anyone know if the square is still available or of the larger triangle too?

Hi,

The 26 x 16 square was a one time limited batch that had to be preordered. The larger Carpenters Triangles 12" and 18" are not available anymore.

Also here is a forum with a dedicated board for Woodpeckers (Richard Hummel)  http://www.talkfestool.com/vb/woodpeckers/

What's the methodology for squaring the MFT using this square? I've seen several posts with quite a few different ways of Squaring the MFT. Anything that makes the process quicker and more precise can only be a good thing

I use an 18", 45 degree Drafting Triangle ( http://www.dickblick.com/products/blick-triangles/ ) elevated on a 12X12" piece of scrap 1/2" plywood.  Loosen the front guide lock and adjust for square.  Lock the stop.  I can drop the Drafting Triangle on edge on the concrete floor and then drive over it with my car and it will be as square as new.
