Can it mark 45-degree miters?

Yes. The gauge has a 45° end, making it easy to mark mitered cuts in addition to setting custom angles.

How do I lock the angle in place?

Set the blade to your desired angle and tighten the brass lock nut, which holds the setting securely while you transfer the angle to your work.

Is the blade made of stainless steel?

Is this good for laying out dovetails?

Absolutely. Set it to your preferred dovetail angle and transfer it consistently across all your tails. Pair it with our dovetail joinery tools.

Does the blade slide to different lengths?
