My use case for this is on my table saw where it will assist with blade angle & height setup, as well as miter gauge setup. I got it on black Friday special for less than half regular price. IMHO it is worth that cost, but I'd never pay full for it ($239), as that price is way over what its worth to me would be.
COuld have been a better vid, looks rushed and sorry but the showing the imperial and metric markings without a close up I see nothing. But looks like a great tool if you would do a better vid it would peak my interest more.
Should have focused on the protractor first. Tipping a drill press table accurately is a PITA and I might buy this tool for that alone. All the other stuff / meh. We all have a million ways to set a table saw blade, strike a center line, square a board etc.
As much as I like this Brand (I have three of their products) I don't see much use for this one. There are better tools, simpler to use, potentially more accurate as there are not as many (or non) moving parts and of course cheaper. I see this tool just as a way of showing what they are capable of.
Beautiful made Way overpriced Looks great, just like a Ferrari, then you have to go shopping and you have no boot/trunk to store anything. So buying this, ain't gonna happen.

Yep, best to wait for sale. Which goes for about every single product they sell.
Super
I’ve got a teeny bit of tool-lust buzzin ‘round my head now…. Is this beauty made from aluminum or steel? Strikes me as aluminum for some reason.
Yeah, need close-ups. Looks well made tho

Music was annoying and you should use your words. And I agree with others close ups would be helpful.
