afish said:Yea, as I mentioned it's pretty darn accurate way to check quickly. I never tried to measure it but If there's a woodworking project that requires an edge to be more square then I can detect using a good fixed square and bright light I won't be anywhere near it and Im pretty finicky. Its virtually splitting hairs at that point. Those digital protractors are good for running trim and such not for checking square when it counts.
For my Table Saw, I use the Wixey digital angle gauge which is accurate to within ±0.2°. While only slightly less than the protractor, the max cutting depth on the TS is only 3 1/8" so the max error is 0.001". Now I'll have to check that against a square and the light to get it down to 0.0005" accuracy!! [big grin]
