Actually I am. That is why I'm making videos. I could not find anything simple enough to teach beginning students. "If it doesn't exist, make your own."

My Dad had one in his tool box but I never saw him use it. I still have it. I made up my own name (Transfer Tool) and figured out how to use it. I was 45 before I learned the official name.

Thanks for this, using a t-bevel to redo stair treads vs setting up a jig.

I always u my bevel on treads. Never seen framing close enough to satisfy me

When you draw your layout line, does it matter if you use the inside part of the blade or the outside part?

@vjwanner5799 Жыл бұрын

Either way. Will produce same angle. Out of habit, I usually use outside edge.

@stephenbryant7873 2 жыл бұрын

At about 2:43 it looks like the blade is not flat on the wood. The tip is touching but there is a gap that gets bigger as you approach the pivot. Isn't the angle captured by the T-bevel a little too large?

@vjwanner5799 Жыл бұрын

If angle is larger than can cut on a miter saw, can freehand.

Can you tell me why the blade is sharp on the edge...why does it look like an exacto knife at the very end? Does that serve a purpose?

@vjwanner5799 4 жыл бұрын

It is not sharp. Just flat. The point allows you to measure inside corners.

@ron1martens 4 жыл бұрын

Deborah Mounts I guess you can measure a specified distance to the point when measuring. Also that it slides in and locks so it packs away nicely without been damaged.

I have my grandfather’s old , full metal bodied , no liquid level , Craftsman T-bevel and was wondering how it was used .

Awesome. Olde tools can carry memories.

Why does the metal blade have a 45degree angle the end?

@vjwanner5799 Жыл бұрын

Gives a stop when retracted into handle.

@the619savage 4 жыл бұрын

Why did you measure on the inside then marked on the outside?

@LCHSconstruction 4 жыл бұрын

The angle is the same on either side of the tool

@vjwanner5799 4 жыл бұрын

Just like Geometry class way back when, the angles are the same. So, you can scribe your transferred line from either side.

How do you set an accurate angle on the miter without measuring the angle?

@vjwanner5799 2 жыл бұрын

Can either freehand cut or use TBevel to set angle on miter saw

@robira1313 Жыл бұрын

@@vjwanner5799 -but the question was HOW do you set the miter saw angle?

@vjwanner5799 Жыл бұрын

Line handle against miter saw base. Then swing miter over to match edge of Tbevel. I use a slide saw, so i slide it in and out trying to get best accuracy. Then lock saw down. If making a bunch of cuts, just note the angle on the saw gage.
