This is great for measuring short angles, not longer ones [Posted on 2003-05-20]
At first when I ordered this, I thought it was for longer pieces of work. It is actually for shorter pieces. This is an add on for the Bosch Digital Protractor. What this extension allows you to do is extend it just a little bit, or as much as you need, not off the end of the leg, but rather BACK OVER THE ELBOW OF THE UNIT, to measure the angle of something that may be only 3 or 4 inches in length. By extending it the short distance, getting the angle, then deducting it from 180 degrees you can get an accurate measurement. The instructions that come with it, show you a picture of someone who is outside,holding the protractor against a wall, and extending the extension backwards across the knee to get the slope measurement of an outside window sill plate.
Anyhow, it is an infrequently used item for your Bosch Digital Protractor, but it does come in handy for the shorter pieces, and for the price it is a worthwhile addition. Hope this was helpful.

very cool tool [Posted on 2003-08-15]
my best friend for crown moulding, takes a little work for a math idiot like me to convert the angle degree's over to the corresponding miter saw settings (dewalt) but now I see some of the miter saws coming out with degree settings marked out, so it wouldn't evan take work if you own one of them.

The tool is flaweless and it has a multitude of uses, not only crown moulding, but base casing everything where angle has to be figured out.

I got the case seperately a worthwhile expense, I aslo use it to tune up my table saw and miter saw. My only wish is that they would come out with a smaller version.

Not really useful [Posted on 2005-09-14]
I bought this think it would extend the length by 18". NO, it just extends over the knuckle by 4". not really useful. Don't buy this if you think it;s going to give your long side legs. It doesn't

Must have if you want to measure the outside of a bent tube [Posted on 2007-10-04]
If you want to get the angle from the outside of a bent piece of tube >, you must have this. You open the device and slide the leg extender over the open end of the top channel giving you a surface to work with.

Good but unneeded [Posted on 2008-01-24]
Well made but it will become just another dust collector. There are other manual angle finders on the market that are quicker and easier to use. The lack of a memory really makes this a time waster.
