Thought I posted a little blurb last night.....must have missed the "post" button...
The combo square ( single one, per project) I use is usually set up to mark a depth of cut, like around a mortise. I leave the setting alone.
The Try Square I use is for marking a square line across a board, and to check IF a joint is square.
Both squares will sit on the bench during a project, each has their own jobs to do.

Usual suspects. There is a small combo square and a small try square in the jumble.....

Add in a backsaw, and these will appear..

Other times, other sizes of squares get used. Not the least worried about who made any of them...all I ask is that they do their jobs.

Even if it is to just check a corner....
