Squaring stock means making it flat and paral-
lel along both length and width, and making the
length and width perpendicular to one another.
The purpose of squaring stock is to prepare it for
accurate cuts and construction later on.
A properly "squared up" workpiece is essential for
tasks such as accurate tablesaw cuts, glue-ups/
laminations, cutting accurate bevels on a band-
saw, and many other applications where one sur-
face of a workpiece is used to reference another.
