Years ago I bought a tool called Circle Square from the inventor here
on Rec.Woodworking. Over the years it has been my favorite marking
and measuring tool. If anyone knows the inventor of this tool, could
you post back here with any kind of contact info you might have. I
would really like to pick up another of them or two. It has held up
really well, but I live in fear of the day I drop it or somehow
accidently break it.
Thanks

Search this group for "circular square bench stop".... the display
will be preceded by DIY and looks to be a post by JOAT. There is a
link in the post, but it either won't open for me or it not longer
exists. Not sure what the link is, since I can't open it, and, for
some reason, I'm having a problem inserting a link.
I copied & pasted the post, by JOAT:

Ok, I'm interested. But you should know, this better be some really
intriguing device that I'm waiting for and not some dinky piece of
junk, or you'll pay for it. :)

Guess I should say when I said years ago, it was literally around 18
years ago, so yes this little plastic tool has held up really well and
yes, I am asking for some really deep memories here. :)

I find that my words are quite often inadequate for the tasks to which
I set them, and such being the case I will post a picture this evening
so that the picture can do so eloquently what it takes words 10,000 to

Leon gave me that one for Christmas last year ... a REAL handy gadget,
and _very_ accurate due to the vernier scale.
One of those "wished I'd had this before" type gadgets.
Thanks again, Leon!

Look very similar to one of these I bought awhile ago from Lee Valley.

You could try to describe what you have. It may now go by another name.
In metal machining, some people use a precision ground cylinder as a 90°
reference on a surface plate. Let's say the cylinder is 3" in diameter
and 6 inches tall. If the ends are faced perfectly, then, when stood on
end upon a surface plate, the outer surface of the cylinder is at
exactly 90° to that surface plate. Is that what you are talking about?
If not, then what?
