This digital inclinometer with a magnetic base is an awesome helper for adjusting circular saw blades to a precise angle! Lukas will soon share this one on the marking & measuring shelf in the wood workshop.

To use, simply reference the saw's table as "zero", then let the tool snap to the side of the blade and adjust the vertical bevel until you're happy.

Before you put the inclinometer back into its box, make sure to turn it off by holding the ON/OFF/REF button for a few seconds.
