Do we need a $359 miter gage?
If so, this might be it.

I saw an article about this guy in the Popular Mechanics mag but I've
never seen the tool.

The video shows the guy setting his blade angle with it.
Pretty cool.

Oh....it tells you the temperature too.

When you look at the photos page -- the bottom picture (the cross-cut
demo), it appears that he is about to slice into that nice mitre gage.

A precision mater gauge and the inventor uses a framing square and the blade
to calibrate a 90 degree cut. I think if he knew what he was doing he would
be using the miter slot to calibrate the gauge. The gauge really should be
calibrated to its slide path rather than a blade that may not be parallel to
the miter slot. I think I would opt for the Sears version at less than 1/4
the price.

Those are so much alike I had to go back and read the PM article
again. Sure enough it reads "which he recently licensed to Sears
Craftsman." I should pay more attention.

I'm glad I didn't buy one!!

Great point.

A quarter's worth of MDF... Calibration! G
