Review on πŸ”§ Precision and Durability Combined: GemRed Digital Finder Protractor Stainless by Mark Jefferson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I wish I had bought this years ago!

I wish I had bought this many years ago. I've been working with wood for about 5 years; I do some furniture but mostly military flags and shadow boxes. Sometimes my beveled corners were far from perfect and all I had were combo squares and big orange speed squares to help me out. The result was sometimes excellent bevels, and sometimes I needed twice as much putty as I needed. Let's get to this handy tool. I wanted to cut in half at a 45 degree angle and knew 22.5 would be the answer, but since my miter saw wouldn't do that I had to approach a band saw and finish on a 12 inch bench grinder. The angle finder locks into place, allowing me to approach with a bandsaw and sand to perfection. You can find/adjust angles and also check the settings of your saw and other tools. I've also used it to test 90 and 45 of my plastic Speedgons. Turns out the one I've had for years wasn't 45 years old. Whenever I used them for projects, I had subpar results.
