You can get small machinist squares for layout at many industrial and tool

It's a trifle pricy, but I was thinking of buying one of the digital "tilt
boxes" for measuring my blade angle. It would be convenient on those angle
cuts. Of course, if all I was cutting was 90° and 45° cuts then it would be
cheaper and easier to pick up a 45° square.http://www.leevalley.com/wood/page.a...at=1,240,41064

This part in the description of that tilt box is a bit odd.
"It has a range of 90° left or right and a resolution of 0.05°
(accurate to 0.2°)."

I guess that's like having a car with a speedometer that goes to 120
and the car tops out at 85. Or a woman saying she feels 25 and she's
talking about the age of her breast implants.
