Hi Guys
   
 Can anyone advise, has bought, has experience in the use of a Digital Angle Gauge.  I think my main usage would be in setting up milling operations.

I just used mine the other day basicaly for the first time on the mill just put it on the mills table zero'd it and set the piece to the desired angle  works great! So I guess we can now say "dam the torpedo's"  :D

BillTodd:
I bought one a while ago. I checked it against a sinebar and it seem pretty accuate well  within ±1lsd.

I use my IPhone program called Setsquare. Very accurate but awkward to handle the phone around machines. The proce is right though, $0.0

I have a Wixey angle gauge which I use mainly for mill set ups.  As Tom says, I set it on the table and zero it and then it's good to go.  Mine has a flip out display and a magnetic base which make it easy to use on ferrous work pieces.  I also use it on the side of the mill head if I want to set that over (but use a tramming tool when putting it back).  A very useful little tool.  :thumbup:
