    Every Woodworking Shop Should Have One

    I bought this to measure angles on my sharpening grinder for my lathe tools, although it has also come in very handy to true-up the blades on my table saw, band saw, radial arm saw, etc. I first set all blades using various right angle squaring tools around the shop. Then checked with the Wizey WR300, and to my surprise, every blade was still off by .2-.9 of a degree. I highly recommend the Wixey WR300. If you need to cut perfect angles, you gotta have this. Shipping was as expected. No problems. Received in 3 days with free shipping. Buy it; you won't be disappointed.

  • Top critical review

    Not as good as the old ones.

    I have one of these angle finders at work, and it has worked very well for me. So when it came time to buy one for home, I didn't hesitate to buy the Wixey, but I was somewhat disappointed. The new one is cheaply made, it's mostly plastic, it seems to work OK, but I like my old one better.

  • Does what it's supposed to do.

    It is possible to set up cutting tools without this, but it's much faster doing it with this. I confirmed accuracy using try squares that I know are accurate, and the readings with this were either dead on or off by 0.1 degree, just as the specs say. If you often change the settings on your table saw, miter saw or jointer, this will speed the process and provide greater accuracy than other methods. The quality did seem a bit on the cheap side, but I don't expect that durability will be a problem. The plastic clam shell that it comes in pulls open and presses closed, with a slot to hang on a pegbboard. This both protects it and makes it easy to find.

  • Perfect!

    Love this thing. very easy to use, backlight is helpful. magnetic base is plenty strong. box small and light enough to use on my band saw blade...you could probably fit it on a scroll saw. This product does everything that it says it does.

  • Great Product backed up by Great Company

    Great Company to work with....Really good product. Needed to set up the Bandsaw I rebuilt. Worked flawlessly. Blade is 90 degrees to the table now. Mistakenly ordered 2 of the WR300's.... Company issued a return immediately for one of them. Great Job SRA

  • Great small digital angle finder

    Item performs as described and expected. Very easy to calibrate and use. Would recommend this product to anyone wanting a good quality digital angle finder gauge. The backlight shuts off but you can also just turn the unit off if you don't want the light to bother you.

  • Great Tool for set-ups

    Very accurate for setting saw blade angles. Can also be used to check squareness of a drill press table to the spindle. Setting jointer fence angles or exactly 90' Very handy!

  • Most Accurate

    I ordered this angle finder after ordering a few others and quickly having to return them because the numbers jumped all over although the other two different brands were on solid surfaces. The others don’t compare to this Wikey accuracy. It’s easy to use and the angle is exactly the same no matter how many times you move it. I zero it out, flip it 90 degrees on both of its sides and it’s exactly 90 degrees. I tried it around 5 times and every time it was exact. I also tried from zero to the 45 degree angle on a speed square and it was also the Exact 45 degrees every single time. With the others : 1) I couldn’t zero it out to exactly 0. The other two would go from zero then jump to .05. Flipping them on their sides would go 88.6 and the numbers would jump up and down from the 88.6. On both of the others I NEVER got a 0, 90 or a 45 degree angle reading. 2) The buttons were hard to press and didn’t work no matter how softly or hard I pressed on them. It’s true to say that you get what you pay for. Don’t be fooled by the low price on the others. Wikey is the BEST when it comes to accuracy and I highly recommend it to anyone that does fine finish work.
