Thanks! When I was at Harbor Freight yesterday, I had both of those in my cart and put both of them back. LOL I figured I’d better find out how to use them before I wasted anymore money on angle finders. Thanks again for the good lesson.
I bought one of the smaller one few years back, it didn’t come with a manual to explain all those numbers and how to use it. Searching the internet I came across some material explaining how to use this protractor. If you like I can email it to you.
Hey could you post a link, just got one I’d like to know also. I have a feeling it has to do with interior and exterior angles, possibly the angles to cut a miter. Anyways I would appreciate it the source.
I just want to know if my mower blade is the proper angle for the type of blade I have. Cub Cadet says my mower is "45-degree angle is sufficient" to be sharp so that is what I'm trying to keep it at but some take them down to 35-degree or less.
you can use this to set the bench grinder support at the correct angle and that should get a consistent angle on the blade, in practical service, you will not notice a difference in 45 and 35 degrees when cutting grass, having a sharp edge is the most important requirement - thanks for subscribing!
that is two craftsmen cast iron tops bolted together to give a very solid wide table, with a cast iron extension on each side, I have a 6 ft wide solid table saw top - search the internet, there are other saws like this out there, that's where I got the idea, I only use one cutting blade, mostly for the same reason - large solid table saw top, which doubles as a work area - thanks for subscribing!
I only use one of them as a table saw (both are functional), the other is used to get twice the table space that is cast iron, so with 2 saws and 1 cast iron wing, I have a nice big solid surface, and I also get less vibration from the motor, its two craftsmen saws from the 1990s, Thanks for subscribing!
I realized when I made the video that someone would be unhappy no matter how I demonstrated it, so I showed one use case, how to use it to setup the angles on the table saw, and everyone could figure out their own use case - Thanks for proving my prediction right - At least you got your money's worth Thanks for subscribing!
@@snapwholeharborfreightreviews I hope you understand my comment was not meant to be negative. On the angle finder I have it shows 45' when in the same position that yours actually shows 90'. In the small window below it shows approx 90'. I am thinking the finder is telling me that if you want to miter an inside corner for baseboard cut 2-45' pieces. No instructions at all came with mine.

they are useful and work great for tool setups, thanks for subscribing!
I bought the smaller one years ago while building hex shaped book shelf to set the angle on my circular saw.
Thanks for the comment - Thanks for Subscribing!

What table saw is that? I have never seen one with 2 blades like that. What is the purpose?

My buddy Dave wanted me to ask you "how does having two tablesaws bolted together help you in your everyday woodworking?"

@@snapwholeharborfreightreviews okay, I told him you were probably using the second saw as an extension.
2:30 I’m confused how does 90 to 120 give you 30°
think about it, you'll figure it out, maybe see if you can find a book on geometry and a book on perspective, that will help - thanks for subscribing!
@@snapwholeharborfreightreviews Sorry. Got it. Was tored
Not very instructional.
