Abstract:
A device for providing saw cutting angle settings for each of two corner members which form an angular inside junction, comprising:a first arm having an outer straight edge, for positioning against one of said two corner members, and a semi-circular face upon which are first and second readable angular scale markings on a segment of a circle, said first and second angular scale markings radiating from a fixed center point, said first angular scale markings representing a true angle, said second angular scale markings representing the 180Â° complement angle to said first angular scale markings; a pivot point on said first arm which defines said fixed center point of said first and second readable angular scale markings; a second arm positioned above said first arm and connected to and pivotal relative to said first arm about said pivot point, said second arm having an outer straight edge for positioning against the other of said two corner members, and a semi-circular face having an arcuate window positionable relative to said first angular scale markings, said semi-circular face of said second arm having an outer edge which is at an angle of 20Â° relative to a line normal to said outer straight edge; a pointer means adjacent said arcuate window to determine said true angle and said saw cutting angle; and means to determine a saw setting from a position of said pointer relative to said second readable angular scale markings.
