Using that technique, I can get it within .002, guaranteed. Likely closer.
Indicator is faster though.

Feeler gauge?? Won't the feeler gauge flex the blade over as you slip it
between? I push on my blade (CMT combo blade) a smidge and I see my
indicator swing like mad (even though the flex is not visible to the eye).

How close to "proper alignment" can you get with the stick on a miter
gauge
technique? 0.1" 0.01??? As little as 0.005" in error can adversely
effect the quality of your cuts.
