No use posting something and saying it's super useful, without a link. :)

Those are great! Good job!

I liked your cutting jig solution... very intuitive, but unnecessary. For future reference, your saw will cut a 60° angle. It'll cut any angle up to 90°. It goes to 45° in each direction. For a 60° cut, you'd set the miter for the complimentary angle in the opposite direction. So for a left-hand 60° miter, you'd set the saw 15° right (60° - 45° = 15°). EDIT: I was dead wrong on this. Need a jig to do it on a miter saw. Never occurred to me before now that I've only ever used the table saw or miter box for angles over 50°.

Incidentally, this is also how you get perfect outside corners with no gap when cutting baseboard, because walls are never square. Instead of 45ing both pieces and just filling the gap with a wax crayon or caulk, you use a protracror to find the exact angle of your corner and cut your baseboard at complimentary angles. Leah from See Jane Drill does a good job explaining it for us visual learners. Also works for inside corners if you're not the best with a coping saw.

What kind are you looking for? Something like a T-bevel? Or a digital level? I've got both, and they work fine for their particular applications.

Similar thing. Get an angle gauge.

That one sucks long term. The body is plastic. The electronics stopped working after 8 months.

Recently got this one: GemRed 82305 2in1 Angle Finder Ruler (200mm) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00W395R5E
Works better, haven't had it long enough to know how long it will last. I wish one side was thicker like the General Tools version above. But I have recently been using it a lot and finding it to be accurate.

Good to know... I may pick one of these up as a replacement if I have issues with mine. Thanks!
