PROSITE 5-IN-1 COMBINATION PROTRACTOR, from the L.S. Starrett Co., provides direct readings for miter, single and compound cuts, exact angle/supplemental angles, and roof pitch references. For mitering or making single cuts for butt joints, the user adjusts the tool legs to the work surfaces, reads the angle on the dial face, and sets the miter saw to the reading. The tool also features a compound cut conversion table for cutting crown molding as it lays flat in a compound miter saw. For simultaneously determining angle readings and supplemental angles, the tool has a protractor on the reverse side. In addition, quick references to common roof pitches can be determined by aligning the tool leg to the angle lines on the roof pitch scale. The 12" tool is constructed of 1/4" aluminum and sells for about $90. Contact: L.S. Starrett Company. Tel: 800-541-8887. www.starrett.com
