Today was the first job that I took my new kapex to. I used that angle finder, for two close together returns  kinda like a "U" shape. It didn't work :( the crown was wide on both returns. Darn!!!!

So then I went to my fall back, and used my bosch miter finder. The return lengths were about 2". Anyway I got it done, and then when I went to do the next one- my bosch miter finder gave up the ghost. Darn again! it shows all 8's. couldn't shut it off, took out the batteries, but nope.

Ok so I try the kapex angle finder - again. Only this time, I read the instructions  [embarassed] it works.

note to self: read instructions.
 
well not so much printed instructions, but a utube video on my iphone. Soon as I saw what the guy was doing I remembered :) I am actually slower doing angles this way right now, but it will get faster as I get used to the kapex and the system.
 
Hmmm I going to have to check that U Tube Video out, Ive been wondering how to use that angle finder

It's really a shame that there isn't a 32 page full color instruction manual to help out in situations like this.........if only someone would think of this......hmmmm......?
 
strangely yesterday was my first day aswell taking the kapex out of the shop on a crown molding job, the angle finder allowed me to have near perfect miters each time.

Rick, I think that someone did already think about a 32 page color electronic supplemental manual.  [thumbs up] [poke]

Users can view and download it here:  Kapex Supplemental Manual

I have a copy stored on both my phone and iPad for when I am out in the field.

Thank you Rick.

Hey Rick,

Any idea when your MFK700 supplemental manual will be available?

Thx

Fred
