A scale with interlocking teeth sets the angle precisely in quarter-degree increments from 0° to 7°. For larger angles, you can switch to the other scale which goes from 0° to 15° in half-degree increments. Should you need to change the angle, the interlocking teeth assure perfect alignment when you need to return. Of course, you can lock the jig at any intermediate angle, as well. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEveryone who has used a normal taper jig \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eto cut furniture legs knows theres a moment of high anxiety at the end of the cut. Youre working close to the blade, theres not much material left and that wonky angle doesnt lend itself to using push sticks or featherboards. But the Precision Taper Jig is different. Theres a sacrificial MDF sled on the bottom and quick-release clamps riding in the extrusion tracks. Your workpiece is held down to the sled, rather than against the table of your saw. The sled also eliminates any worry about bottom-side tear-out. With a clamping range from 3\" down to just 17\/32\", the clamps work on just about any tapered project and the clamping handles serve double-duty as convenient gripping points for pushing the jig.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFor wider stock,\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e you have two choices.
