<p>Normally there used to reinforce corner joints in a repair. However it works good as clamping aid. I am exceedingly impressed at how well they work. There called 5 inch L brackets 5 bucks for corner clamps good deal. Replaced my Sears corner clamps. Here is a link to my clamps there big and bulky . <a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/272512692551" target="_blank">http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/272512692551</a> Actually I'll take a picture and post in the morning.</p>

<p>Gary,</p>
<p>I recall reading that, or a similar article, and had to verify it for myself.</p>
<p></p>
<p>I checked some typical stamped & formed angle braces, normally found at home centers---</p>
<p>I found the angles <strong>WERE NOT</strong> true <strong>90 degrees</strong>.</p>
<p></p>
<p>The angles were measured using an accurate precision machinist square.</p>
<p></p>
<p>BTW---the angles can flex, depending on the amount of load they are subjected to.</p>

<p></p>
<p>The <strong>BEST</strong> I've found for assembly squareness, is using the "clamp-it" squares, offered by Rockler.</p>
<p>They're TRUE, of rigid construction, and feature reinforcing ribs.</p>
<p>These are my GO-TO squares for clamping frames, cabinet boxes, and the like.</p>

<p>Also available in the mini size.</p>
<p>Great for drawers, where the larger size is to big to fit inside of a box/frame.</p>
