    Second Best Setup Bars (as Tested Against Three Other Brands)
  

*by K***G on Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2023*

Overall ResultsThe Uprimu was the clear winner on accuracy.  It was consistently the most accurate across all bars except on the 1/8" bar where Taytools won by a single thousandth of an inch.  While the etching on the Uprimus was not as deep as Taytools bars, it was still present and easy to read.  I personally prefer a 3" or longer length since I expect to use these frequently with my 1-2-3 blocks which are, as the name implies, 3" on their longest side.  I also believe it is just generally easier to work with a longer bar and the added size for storage feels negligible.  The rankings below are subjective, but I ranked them as follows with the following priorities: accuracy, build quality, length, case quality.  I would be willing to keep and use any of these except for the Peachtree product: I don't mind the lack of case or the more tarnished appearance, but I would not accept the 0.0029-0.0073" error on 3/5 bars.  I ended up keeping the Uprimus and returning the rest, but you can't go wrong with any of the top three IMHO.  I attached summary results and raw data in images.#1- Uprimu#2- Taytools#3- Nucucina#4- PeachtreeTest Setup:-Home Depot Husky Brand 6" Digital Calipers-Taytools 2.5" Brass Setup bars-Nucucina 3" Black Aluminum Setup bars-Peachtree 4" Brass Setup bars (produced by Might-T-Track brand)-Uprimu 4" Blue Aluminum Setup barsTest Procedure-Measure every bar in set-Take measurements at each end and the middle-Take these measurements on both "sides" as bars can be "upright" or on their "side"-Re-zero caliper and re-measure any time a measurement seems off (out by ~20+ thousandths of an inch)-Average data for each bar and across all barsCase NotesTaytools had a plastic case which LOOKS like it will allow you to open individual bar slots, but actually forces you to open all at once and will likely break at some point, especially since the bars float loosely inside the plastic.  The Uprimu and Nucucina were plastic cases with dual latches and fitted foam slots inside.  The latches on the Nucucina may last longer due to their sliding design, but the Uprimu is not far behind in overall quality of case.  The Peachtree bars came in a disposable plastic bag and no case.Ancillary Notes-I consider etched markings better than stamped as they will not wear off with simple use and rubbing.-Taytools bars had the best etching and general overall fit and finish, including eased edges and corners where the others were all squared off.-Peachtree bars had the worst fit and finish as they were both scuffed and tarnished upon receipt, though this was only cosmetic.-Aluminum bars are noticably lighter than brass.  This is a matter of preference for most bars, though the 1/8" and 3/16" may or may not be subject to bending/breakage if you really abuse them.  I was not able to flex them with a reasonable amount of force, but I could likely bend them if I used more strength.
