A tool that saved me a lot of time [Posted on 2008-04-03] I recently installed crown mouldings to the cabinets of my kitchen, this tool saved me a lot time, I measured the angles, went to my miter saw, set the miter to the angle provided by the tool, and made a perfect miter joint.
Miters made super-simple [Posted on 2008-06-20] This product makes an novice look like a pro! It makes mitering easy as reading a scale and transferring that number to the miter saw.........perfect each and every time. Wishin' I had this yards of stock ago.
Starrett ProSite Protractor 505A-7 [Posted on 2008-08-04] This tool eliminates all trial-and-error from cutting crown molding, cabinet making, and other critical carpentry jobs. It is as precise and accurate as my radial arm saw and my chop saw, and it requires no batteries, it fits in my back pocket and is as dependable as my square. Great tool!
Thought they fixed that. [Posted on 2008-08-21] Having worked in and around machine shops all my life, the name Starrett became synonymous with quality. Recently, however, I purchased a Starrett Miter Saw Protractor model 505A-7 and was shocked to find that Starrett is no long is concerned about accuracy. The instrument I purchased was clearly off my at least one half degree while the package label screams "laser engraved accuracy". My research indicates Starrett knows of this issue and has chosen to ignore it; seems wood workers do not "require accuracy" according to Starrett.
This could have been a really great new product. It is novel and well made but I would advise Starrett to track down the person in their organization that developed it and "fire" him. Everything a company produces reflects that company's image and this one says Starrett has developed a new business strategy, "caveat emptor ".
Accurate and fast measurements [Posted on 2008-09-07] Very easy and accurate tool .working for five years as a professional finish carpenter this product saves you a lot of time and money .extremely happy about this purchase. and definitly recomment to anyone who needs and wants a accurate and a fast job done well.
