I am in need of a custom accurate square that I would use to set up and adjust machinery...especially crosscut fences on a sliding table saw. I am thinking a 16" X 24" size would work fine. One requirement is that the edges be smooth in order to use a dial indicator along the edges. Of course, it must be accurate as well. I am undecided as to wether I would want it made from aluminum or a plastic or phenolic type of material, probably 1/4" or 3/8" thick. I am asking you experts what process listed above would be more desirable and would one type of material have advantages over others I have listed. I assume any one of the processes would be capable of producing a good 90* angle.
