    While the Swanson combo squares are accurate for sure - they are NOT durable. I am now on my 5th 6", 3rd 12" and 3rd 16".

I use the 6" for wood joints mainly and occasionally as a depth gauge; being small enough to fit into some quite tight spaces. The 16" (on review here) is much better for square and mitre lines on larger wood sections and boards where I would normally have used the 12" before (one made of aluminium, another ...
