I had an idea a few weeks ago about making an accurate protractor that could measure an angle to 1/10 of a degree for setting up angles on tablesaw, jointer, bandsaw or whatever. It uses a level vial and a vernier scale I drew with autocad. It works pretty good! I have free instructions on how to make one on my site if anyone wants to see. http://www.stevengarrison.com/id28.html
