A sliding bevel is an excellent tool for transferring angles but not for reading them. This bevel setter lets you set specific angles (from 0° to 60° in 1/2° increments) on a sliding bevel or a workpiece as well as read angles that are already set. Both functions are useful for dovetailing, for machine setup, for polygon work or for accurately fitting a piece in a restricted location. Common dovetail and polygon angles are highlighted on the reverse side. The etched stainless steel blade is 3" (75mm) wide and 7" (178mm) long. It is both easier to use and more accurate than a protractor in the same applications. Weight: 300g.
