I saw a review of this and decided to order and give it a try. It’s a fine product—accurate and simple to use. My kind of tool! What is it? It’s a jig that “sets any miter gauge to precise angles”. It’s pretty self explanatory in its use but the extra cool feature is the aluminum “step bar” that’s provided that allows the jig to set any 1/2° angle between 0° and 55°. Simple and time saving.
The inventor also has a miter setting jig for segmented cuts as well, but I’m afraid I didn’t get that one yet so I can’t comment on it.
Their website is www.miterset.com
Fine Woodworking had a review of it. And I think the latest issue of Wood Magazine had a review too.
Recommended.

OttawaP,
Same reason I didn’t think of the pet rock or the Big Mac.
