How To Use A Starrett Miter Protractor

A Starrett Miter Protractor is a great tool that simplifies the process of trim work. It quickly gives you the angle as to which you should cut your pieces in order for them to fit correctly together.

One of Starrett’s least expensive tools, but just as accurate as their combi squares, etc. thanks for putting this together.

Excellent video and a great job providing this excellent instructions! Very helpful indeed and this tool is an excellent tool to have when installing baseboards! It's a must have tool! Great job!

I’m a beginner at baseboards with angles. You my friend made my day !! Thanks

Best video I've seen for the use of this tool!

I felt so stupid about the "single cut" until you explained it. The I was like duh". Thank you!

Here is a thought from what I've seen: go 1 degree beyond to make it a really tight fit. So for inside corners say the Starett says 44 degrees but instead of doing 44 degrees go 43 degrees (yes 1 degree less). For the outside corners go 1 degree higher. So if it comes back with say 46 degrees go 47 degrees instead. Try it!

Watch at 1.5x speed. You're welcome.

Did not concentrate on why the inside arrow and the rim arrow. Why one says single cut? Also what about using it to determine an angle of something that your not cutting anything.

No a bad video. You should buy a camera stand to free up your other hand. .

you should get a job as the quiet speaker on seinfeld

What do you do when the wall is only 2 - 3 inches from corner ? Or you have a door casing a few inches away from your corner? Cut the arms of the protractor, which would take away from the accuracy. What would you suggest?

[johnbryant]

Temu sells it for $6.00 if you don't need it right away

Good video but please invest in a tripod so you can use both hands.

Enjoyed your video. How does the angle measurement translate over to a miter saw? What if an inside corner is 46 degrees? How does that translate over? To the left of zero, to the right of zero?

Your recording volume is to low, can barely hear you.

Just got one of these today and its absolute junk. There is so much slop in it. The accuracy is a joke.
