This 8" model is the big brother to Wixey's 3" Digital Protractor, and its longer blades make it a perfect choice for laying out cut lines or alignment marks on lumber.It's also ideal for setting up jigs and fixtures as well as machinery such as jointer fences or the blade angle on table saws.
Wixey's Digital Protractors can be used in any plane and have dozens of uses that fall into two main categories: as a gauging tool, the pivoting blade and body allow measuring existing angles with 1/10-degree resolution.Zeroing the display also allows measuring the difference between two angles without mathematics.
As a layout or setup tool, the blade and body can be precisely set at any angle and locked together to free up one hand laying out lines across boards or adjusting the fence angle on a jointer.Magnets on the blade edges simplify use on woodworking machinery
