  • Miter angle indicating tool
    Patent number: 6829837
    Abstract: A miter angle indicating tool includes three members that are pivotally attached. The miter angle indicating member is adapted to display the miter angle in or around a corner requiring a miter joint, or to display the bisecting angle of an object. Once the required angle is displayed, the indicating tool can be used to either transcribe the angle onto the material that will form the miter joint or as a jig to set the cutting apparatus to the proper cutting position. In the preferred form of the tool, one member forms a case for storage of the other two members when not in use.
