Now that I think about it, maybe it is HRS. I had forgotten about CRS's
warping problem but wonder how bad it would be if I am only removing a few
thou of material. If the stuff doesn't behave, it will still be useful for
other projects. Clearly I must first see if I can make a straight edge
before spending time making a pair of squares.

I hope you are aware of the internal stresses of Cold Rolled Steel and
the havoc they can wreak (warping) if you cut just one side.
