| When measuring mitered corners, it becomes obvious rather quickly that perfect right angles are a rarity, whether your home is old or new. |
It can be confusing and time consuming to transfer angles measured with a T-bevel and protractor to your miter saw. |
One miscalculation and your miters will not match. |

 |
 |
| The Starrett®
PROSITE® Miter Saw Protractor allows you to quickly
and accurately transfer measurements from the wall to
your miter saw. |
Place the two legs of the tool against the work angle. |
Read the measurement of the angle on the tool . |
| |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
| Transfer this reading directly to your miter saw. |
Cut matching mitered pieces with this measurement, left and right of the zero on your saw gauge. |
The resulting mitered pieces will fit the corner like a glove. |
| |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
| For inside corners, simply use the inside scale on the tool. |
When cutting baseboards and other tall pieces, use the angle measurement to calibrate the bevel gauge on your miter saw. |
Lay the baseboard flat on the table of the saw and make your cuts. |
| |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
| For single-angle cuts, such as the end of flooring planks, lay the gauge flat on the floor and read the inside scale. |
One tool is all you need for simple and accurate measurements of mitered cuts for baseboard, chair rail, crown molding, and flooring. |
This tool is also available in
a smaller, pocket-sized version. |
