How do you calculate the angle degree to the miter degree? I assume you divide the degree by 2?

Yes, that is correct. For example I assume that you're doing a corner cut for crown molding and you're not doing a cope or coping cut but a straight miter cut. Check out the miter cutting for crown molding at this web site. www.thisoldhouse.com/toh/video/0,,20056482,00.html good luck.

Yes, correct! If you want to make a 90° turn, cut 2@ 45°, etc. For a 45° turn, 2@ 22.5°.

Second thought,,,, if you scribed the angle at two readings of 13.7 than at 13.8, using dividers bisect between those two lines you will end up with a 13.75 angle

The tool will read 13-3/4 or 13.75 degrees since it reads in .05 degree increments. It should be noted that even rounded to the nearest tenth of a degree the amount you would be off is less than the tools advertised accuracy of +/- .1 degree (If I remember correctly). Rounded .05 degree or 3 minutes would equate to about .010" over the length of the tool.

I'm sorry, I'm not sure. My project was 4.5" base molding. It's a sliding miter, I'm just not sure if you slide it all the way forward how many inches that would be. It's not in the description?

It's pretty easy to calculate the angle of any foam wedge if you have the dimensions. First, divide the wedge height by the length (12/24=0.5). Then, take that result and use a website, calculator, or Excel to calculate the arctangent (arctan) in degrees (for example, http://www.calculatorsoup.com/calculators/trigonometry/inversetrigonometricfunctions.php). The arctangent of 0.5 is about 27 degrees.See, high-school trigonometry is actually useful!

The arms are identical and drilled with 2 through holes so remove one and turn 45 degrees. I was really ticked off till I figured it out :)

If you look closely in the center bottom of the kit picture you may see the blue edge tool and also see a silver metal file embedded in it. It will do the side edge only at 88 (or 2 deg) or 90 (0 deg). An 88 deg angle is typically an intermediate skill level & the 90 a beginners level. Thanks for writing.

I run my ten inch hitachi miter saw on it. Had to mount it to a piece of 3/4 plywood then mounted stand feet to the plywood!! Works great!

It reports at 0.5 degree increments...... removing and replacing, I would say about 1 degree...... I think others have done more elaborate testing, but for me it works well. It does absolute and relative, place it on your table saw plate, zero it, then place it on the blade.

As far as I am aware, there is no angle/corner, be it inside or outside that this tool will not read. Pay attention to the exact reading/degrees, set your miter saw accordingly, make your cuts and get perfect joints first time, always. This is a really useful tool.

Manual says 1.5 inches. I've cut 2x4s no problem.The frame miter attachment says .75 inches on thickness.

22.5 = 1/2 of a 45 degree angle. This is the correct angle for any sharpening.

45 degrees right and left. If you need more of an angle and are mechanistically inclined you can move the support arms closer together. The arms are the thing that limits the angle. If you move the arms that attach to the wall closer together you will get maybe 55 60 degrees. Only try this if you are confortable with supporting heavy objects.

There are five angle settings indicated by colors. The five angle degrees are: 10, 15, 20, 25, 30. I believe there are angle gauges for these types of knife sharpener. That may help you in getting the 16.

I have a Hitachi 10" miter saw, and was able to mount the miter saw to the saw stand arms with only having to use a shorter bolt on one end of the arm. If a miter saw mount holes happen to no match up to the saw arm slot holes, there are instructions with the stand on how to mount the miter saw to a board and attach the saw arms to the board, so either way it will work. Also, recently bought a 12" compound beveled sliding miter saw and had no trouble mounting it to a second purchased set of stand arms.

I no longer have the wedge to measure it, but my memory says it was around 20-25 degree angle. Hope that helps!

Sorry to have taken so long. We had put it away after using it and just found it! It doesn't make quite a 90* angle, but we would say about 110*. Hope that helps.
