Fashion Lee Valley Miter-Saw Setting Guide

To simplify close-fitting joints in trimwork, this protractor eliminates the need to calculate cut angles for single, double and compound miters.

It works with any full-size sliding bevel (minimum 3 1/4″ blade) – once you have registered your sliding bevel against the corner you are trying to match, you can then use the protractor to read the exact angle or bisected angle needed.

The bottom edge of the protractor has a relieved section that lets you hold the stock of your sliding bevel flush against it with the bevel blade set reliably against the protractor scale.

Made of 18 gauge stainless steel with etched, black-filled markings for legibility, it is useful for other applications, such as cutting decking and flooring at odd angles.
