This is an easy to use and accurate tool to calibrate and set the angle of the cut on a circular table saw and a miter saw. I love it and wish I had gotten it sooner rather than trying to use T-Squares or other hand tools.One of the better investments I have made in tools to adjust my table and miter saw. It works in the vertices and horizontal positions.

Use this to adjust the blade on my cabinet saw. Nice compact size and the magnet sticks to the blade

This is very accurate and easy to use. My only issue with it is if you leave a battery in for longer than 6hrs it will totally drain the battery. Kind of annoying but just make sure you remove the battery immediately after use.

I bought this product, because I have a really old table saw and it just has hash marks on the side to tell you your angle. There was no way I was trusting those hash marks. It turns our I was right not to, after using this device. The table was close, but I would have cut incorrect angles if I used those marks to set my angle. This device worked well, though. I cranked my blade out to get enough surface area without resting the edge on the teeth. That would have given an incorrect angle.Like I said, my table saw is old and wobbly, but that wasn't a big deal. I just let it find it's own low spot and zeroed the table to there. Then I put the device on the blade. They recommend setting the blade to 90deg off of the table saw, then putting it on the blade and zeroing it out again. I didn't do that. I just subtracted my 15deg bevel from 90deg. The reason is because my table saw wobbles when I'm adjusting it. By leaving it zeroed to the table, I could put the device on the blade, adjust it, then let it find it's center of balance, check that the table was still at zero(taring it if not) then returning it to the blade to make sure it was still 75deg, which is what I was shooting for.All of that sounds complicated, but it's not. This simple device allowed me to make my desired cut with rickety equipment, which is about all I have. Anyone who's cut with such tools knows what I'm talking about. It allowed me to easily make a cut that would have been almost impossible otherwise.This product is ideal for table saws and compound miter saws, but to be honest, I think you could even use it for a circular saw or jigsaw if you used the method above. The important thing is that during your final check, when you zero the base, you don't shift it when moving it from the base to the blade. This product is well worth the money, though.

Been using this and it seems pretty accurate after a base-line. Sometimes seems to be a bit persnickety.. but totally usable for my needs. Knife angle and Vehicle alignment angles.

This is a great idea for any woodworker!! Easy to use with its magnetic base. Just zero it on your table, then stick it to your saw blade to know the exact angle of your blade. Easy to read backlit display stops the guessing of what degree your table pointer is showing!!

Sturdy and Durable
