Abstract:
An angle indicating instrument which, used in conjunction with a sliding T-Bevel, can indicate to users what miter saw setting to use when cutting two pieces of material for a miter joint, or for cutting one piece of material requiring a miter cut.

Claim (Index 6):
A method for using a protractor for determining miter saw angle settings for miter cuts, the protractor comprising:\n a top edge; at least one face with angle markings, wherein the at least one face further comprises a horizontal line, disposed near or on the bottom edge and parallel to the bottom edge, at least one vertical axis, disposed perpendicularly on the horizontal line, and at least one origin defined as a point where the horizontal line intersects with the at least one vertical axis; a bottom edge; and a tab adjacent to the bottom edge and extending lower than said bottom edge, wherein said protractor is adapted for use with a Sliding T-Bevel, and said tab adjacent to said bottom edge is orientated so as to prevent the handle of the Sliding T-Bevel from engaging the bottom edge of said protractor in an improper orientation, and said method comprising the steps of: transferring a target angle to said Sliding T-Bevel having a handle edge and a blade edge; positioning said Sliding T-Bevel in a functional engagement with said protractor, wherein said handle edge is in abutting engagement with the bottom edge and the blade edge is aligned with the at least one origin; reading a resultant miter saw angle setting value according to a nearest alignment between the blade edge and the angle markings.
