Hi,

Could anyone tell me how to use this tool – although it’s a protractor I’m not sure how you apply this to the piece you’d be working on – ie which side is the angle for marking – do both sides represent the two angles – with it being a vintage tool I’ve not got my head around it.

TIA

its 40 deg on the lower right and 140 on the lower left.

Thanks Bernard – that’s what I’d assumed but couldn’t be sure.

Cheers

I have one. It came in my apprenticeship tool kit. I have never used it!

To be fair I think it could be fairly useful.
