Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"I bought this product, because I have a really old table saw and it just has hash marks on the side to tell you your angle. The table was close, but I would have cut incorrect angles if I used those marks to set my angle. They recommend setting the blade to 90deg off of the table saw, then putting it on the blade and zeroing it out again. By leaving it zeroed to the table, I could put the device on the blade, adjust it, then let it find it's center of balance, check that the table was still at zero(taring it if not) then returning it to the blade to make sure it was still 75deg, which is what I was shooting for."
"I measured it against a digital angle finder ruler by balancing it on the edge of one of the thin steel rulers (this is a feat in itself--that the magnet held this device in place on such a thin piece of metal, even while adjusting the angle to almost 90 degrees)."
"However, when you turn it 180 degrees and use it in that position it becomes very difficult if not impossible to read the screen."
"I used this to set the angles of my driveshaft."
"I'm luckily getting older and don't see as well as I used to, and always set my say blade by eye with a square."
"- I was able to set up my saws and stuff much more accurately than with a T-square or angle square."
"I bought it due to the great reviews I had seen in forums and at amazon and I'm happy I finally went ahead and got one."
"This gauge is small and easily stored when not in use and fits my needs exactly."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"They may be steel, but I've left them in my tool box for years and still see no rust on them."
"The angled ends made it a lot easier to slip these under the rocker arms on my Cummins engine than straight feelers would have been."
"They lay in your toolbox, ignored, until the valves start tapping, or the points need adjustment."
"Not all of the feeler gauges vary, most are true, from my random sampling i'd say more than 80% are true to the number printed on them, and none of them seem to exceed the printed number, definitely a plus."
"I bought this after doing research online, on the best way to change spark plug on a lawnmower."
"Rather have too much oil than rust."
"I lost my old set of USA made go-no-go gauges and I couldn't find another that was USA made."
"I got these to measure neck relief in my guitars and the angled blades make that job pretty easy."
