I would not use this method, at least on Matrix blades. On Matrix, same square could be used like in normal blades. https://youtu.be/DbrR3hBtm70?si=yrajM4-v2Kt6Jw8I

On side honed blades this methods is much better than nothing or just eye balling without any tools. Gold Seals are a bit tricky and Gold Seal revolutions real nightmare.

Some skate techs uses magnetic bat gauge, that part which lays against the edges. They use skate holder as a datum and they eye ball if bat gauge and skate holder are parallel.

Using square like this has couple things which causes high meauring uncertainly.
1. We do not know how well the ruler end is made to be square
2. Blade is just <4mm thick. Its not so easy estimate edges unevenness from so short distace.
3. Skate holer is your datum, I dont think blade will never sit 100% perfectly in the skate holder.

essaie de la meule croisée sur patin bas de gamme qui appartient à la patinoire à coté de chez moi et qui a l'air de fonctionner.
je ferais un petit résumé de tout cela un peu plus tard...

Avant tout cela je voudrais beaucoup remercier Kaitsu qui m'a fait comprendre les avantages de 3",.. et qui dans l'ombre m'a beaucoup aidé sur ce projet délicat....

je sais pas si ce volume de video passe...
mais voilà mon résultat dont je suis fier car j'ai une extraordinaire finition qui se rapproche de ma blademaster 8"
