The 45 degree cut
In my previous post I had shown you a demo of my newly bought TS-2380 A staple gun. The primary objective is to build photo frames. The tool will make the joinery simple. As a photograph to be framed, is light weight in most of the cases, the joints made by the tool can easily bear that.
Now to make the frames, I will be using plain wood beadings. The shape will be rectangular or square. To cut the 4 sides in 45 degree angle perfectly, I think its good to have a jig. Let me float the plan.

Screw them together, use nut and bolt so that it can be rotated |

Add the protractor part with nut pointing above in the base. Protractor part is slidable and it is fixed in the rotating arm at the ends. |

I hope the plan is pretty clear. Advantage of this instrument is that it can be used for cutting almost all the angles required for day to day woodworking. I am yet to work on the plan. If anyone has already done it, please comment :).
