Each time you measure a wall angle and calculate a saw setting, there's potential for error. Starrett's Pro-Site Miter Protractors take the angle calculations out of cutting inside and outside miters, angled butt joints and crown molding. They'll help you create perfect joints every time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"float:right;\"\u003e\n\u003cimg alt=\"Closeup of Starrett 505-series Dial\" data-prev-url=\"\/productimages\/markingmeasuring\/starrett\/starrett-505-dial-close-up-264-300.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/info.highlandwoodworking.com\/productimages\/markingmeasuring\/starrett\/starrett-505-dial-close-up-264-300.jpg\" style=\"width: 194px; height: 220px;\"\u003e \u003cbr\u003eStarrett 505-series Dial\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eBasic 505-Series Protractors\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll three models of the basic 505-series protractors are functionally the same. For cutting a simple miter or angle joint, the saw settings are directly on the tool - use the inside scale \u0026amp; outside arrow for miters and the outside scale \u0026amp; inside arrow for single cuts. If you're cutting crown molding flat on the table of a sliding compound miter saw, measure the angle and use the \u003ca href=\"#moreinfo\"\u003e provided guide chart \u003c\/a\u003e to set the bevel and miter angles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat are the differences between the 505-series models then?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"top-margin: -3px;\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003e 505A-12 \u003c\/strong\u003e is a hefty 12\" long by 2-1\/2\" wide by 1\/4\" thick chunk of aluminum (each leg).
