    Dykes With Drills Tip of the Week: Angle Divider

    By Julie Peri–

    A unique and useful tool for fine finish work is an angle divider. There are a variety of designs for an angle divider, as well as names (some people call this a miter divider, for example). The purpose, however, remains the same. This tool helps you find the angle of any corner.

    To find the angle, adjust the arms of the tool to match up with the angle you want to measure. Then you can transfer the angle to the piece you are cutting. It’s simple and ingenious! The angle divider shown in the picture is no longer sold (vintage!), but newer versions are available online and at select hardware stores.
