I probably would have never bought this for myself. I'm a fairly serious woodworker and have used mechanical angle gauges for years with great success. That being said, this is a great little device. It is as accurate as any of my mechanical gauges and easier to "set up". The monochromatic display is a little hard to see in bright lite, but not a deal breaker. The size is perfect for use on all your saws,including the skil saw and jig saw. I use it to check my jointer table and fence, and the table on the ocillating sander. I normally cringe when someone buys me a woodworking gift, but they hit a homerun with this one. Highly recommend.

As other reviewers pointed out, batteries do not last very long. Or perhaps it shipped with a very cheap battery; I'm not sure. All I can say is that I bought one, played with it, and put it away. The first time I actually needed it, it was dead. After reading the reviews here, I decided to try a brand new battery in it, and now it works fine.

I recommend that you remove the battery when not in use.

A couple of tips: This is not a true level -- it only measures angles relative to wherever it was when you zeroed it. This is actually a good thing, because it lets you set up your table saw blade without needing the saw table to be actually level. This gadget probably has a million and one uses.

Here's how you can use it as a very precise level if you need one: Place the device on the surface you want to level, and zero it. Rotate 180 degrees and note the reading. Adjust the surface half way -- i.e. if the device now reads 1.5 degrees, tilt the surface until it reads 0.75. Now zero the device again and repeat the process. Once the surface is level, the device will read 0 degrees either way. One more tip: now that you have a surface you know is level, you can use it to calibrate the device any time you want it to be a true level. Just make sure your reference surface never gets disturbed.

By the way, has anybody ever actually tested it for accuracy?

The Wixey angle gauge is the perfect device for setting up a table saw or similar stationary tool. If you use a good right angle square you can probably set a tool to a 90 degrees +/- 1.0 or even 0.5 degrees. With the Wixey you can get to +/- 0.1, and if you're just a bit of a nut like me that's a good thing. If you're trying to set the 45 degree stop for a table saw or set an angle for cutting crown molding or some other odd angle, the Wixey can't be beat.

Apart from setting up tools when they're new or being checked, it helps you set up jigs, drill bit angles, etc. You can even measure how accurate your right angle squares are. It's easy to zero and easy to use. One odd bit in the design is that the orientation sensor doesn't shut off completely even when the display is off. So the battery apparently has about a 6 month life. But it's easy enough to take the battery out,tape it to the gauge and reinstall it only when you're using the gauge. And Wixey gives you two batteries with the gauge - one already installed and a spare in an unopened package. (They do the same with the height gauage).

Measurements appear to be repeatable to +/- 0.1 degree accuracy. The display was easy to read in my well lit workshop, but I don't know how well it would work in sunlight. There's a competing product made by Beal that's similar.

This is a well appreciated addition to my shop. It allows making beveled cuts repeatable to a tenth of a degree.

I was going to purchase an Incra square and probably still will for setting up my 90's on tools and instead decided to go with this first. This accomplished the task just as well. They both have their place because each can do things the other can not. This is an absolute ease to use and allows setting up any bevel angle accurately.

Combine with a dead on square and this tool will allow your shop repeatable accuracy in fractional degrees.

I got mine cheaper at Rockler even with shipping.

I bought this device for one use-to set the angle on my table-saw blade. It does that very well, and has found quite a few other uses.

=== The Good Stuff ===

* It works as advertised for the table saw. Set the device on the table bed, zero the scale, than attach it to the blade and immediately see a readout of the angle. It is magnetic along one edge, so it sticks to the sawblade easily, and the 90 degree reading agrees with my machinist's square as near as my eyes can discern.

* The same method has also come in handy on other tools-namely jigsaws and circular saws. Because of its small size, it is practical to use it on these smaller tools-and certainly easier than a square.

* I have also used it to measure interior angles on some small woodworking projects. It is not as accurate as other tools, but often is "close enough" for getting a measurement on bevel angles. The ability to easily zero the scale means you can measure angles between two planes, no matter what their orientation.

=== The Not-So-Good Stuff ===

* It desperately needs a backlight. Especially when working with a table saw, it can be tough to read the display due to the height of the table.

* The display only goes to 90 degrees. When adjusting the blade angle of a table saw, if the display says 89 degrees, it is not always obvious which way to move the blade to get to 90.

* A "hold" button would be nice for applications where you need to remember the last measurement taken.

=== Summary ===

For the price, it has certainly earned its keep in the tool drawer. It is worth the cost just for the ability to set table saw angles without a lot of gyrations, and it has found a number of other uses in the shop. I wish it did a few things differently, but it goes into the books as a success.
