Trend Anglefix Miter Guide for Quick & Accurate Mitersaw Angle Setup, Red, ANGLEFIX

Tool worked as advertised and was easy to use with my miter saw.

Simple, but makes so much sense. Sure, you could use a super accurate angle gauge, but that doesn’t mean your saw will cut at the angle written on it. With this you set the saw at the exact angle you just pulled from the wall. Only complaint is that it doesn’t lock once you find the angle, it’s way to easy to bump it then you have to check again.

I am glad I found a link to this little gadget. It makes finding an angle very very quick and easy. Whether its for base, crown, or any other projects or trim, you just put it in place and take it to the saw to match the angle.The only downsides are that it will not find tight angles due to the guide only collapsing so far on itself. The silver gauge also could be slightly longer so it is easier to tell when you are close as far as matching it up to the blade angle, but overall it works great and I will continue to use it on any angles that it will fit into.

Easy to use, saves time, and great product. Thank you

IF, I was able to somehow tighten the unit to hold the angle until I was able to make the cut I believe it would work much better. As is…it moves and the angle is off if the saw blade touches it requiring many trips back to the place you got the angle from. LOTS of walking. Don’t know if it’s worth it? Probably not.

works as advertised, thanks to the engineer that came up with this tool. need to make a smaller version for the small cuts around posts that are partially imbedded in walls.

Super simple and easy to use, but I do wish it had some way to indicate the angle that you have found.

I did not find this to be accurate. After a few tries I went back to my cheap angle finder that would tell me the angle. This was more accurate and allowed me to make multiple measurements and cuts at onceBest case scenario, you measure once and cut which is lots of going back and forth if you're doing a big job, hoping that nothing fouls the angle as you delicately bring this to the saw since there is no locking mechanism. Finding the angle against the blade sounds like a good idea but it's time consuming and not super accurate

What a handy gadget this is! I've just finished fitting traditional paneling and skirting boards to a slightly asymmetrical bay window, and I shudder to think of doing the same job without the help of this tool. It can be used for two purposes:1) To obtain a simple angle by placing it in a corner and adjusting the two arms to match. I did this when cutting new floor boards to fit up against the bay.2) To obtain the half-angle, when mitering two pieces of moulding into a corner.The half angle is obtained directly from the metal flag, mounted on the hinge. It's internally geared and rotates more slowly than the arms - a clever feature. This is the really big advantage of this tool, and the reason I purchased it. Having obtained the angle I take my Treanglefix over to a mitre saw, or more usually now,  Festool MFT/3 Multifunction Table  and transfer it directly, setting the mitre angle by offering the flag up parallel to the cut line. It's super-easy, saves a ton of time and hassle, and gives me surprisingly accurate joints.Ease of movement of the solid plastic arms can be adjusted via the screw on the hinge. I have mine tightened up fairly well to keep it stiff to avoid accidental errors after I've taken an angle. If I lost mine I'd buy another one immediately - my tool box would be incomplete without it. Festool MFT/3 Multifunction Table

It's OK for internal angles. But a piece of metal 1 inch long is next to useless to line up against a 12 inch saw blade with any real accuracy. If you're a millimetre out, then you'll have a gap of 2mm on your joint on 6" skirting board. Just think about that...And for extremal angles it's frankly garbage.I wish I'd bought a traditional angle measure and learnt to use it. This thing isn't accurate enough.

Easy to use, takes the guess work out of getting the correct angle for cutting on the electric saw, would recommend, just make sure you are cutting from the side of the saw you want the angle for, have a few practice runs on some scrap timber, you might only use it a few times a year so better to refresh the old grey matter on a scrap bit first.

Very handy tool for dividing angles on the mitre saw. Saves messing around with angles and spot on when used carefully.

First time doing mitres put in a window sill and trim the mitres were perfect first time. Great little gadget.
