ABSTRACT:
A gauge for determining whether a conductive element, such as a cutting element, fence, gauge rod, gauge shaft, or guiding surface is oriented at a predetermined angle with respect to a reference surface is disclosed and claimed. The gauge includes an indicator, an electrical energy source, and at least one pair of contacts. When the gauge is placed on the reference surface, the contacts are abutted against the conductive element, and the conductive element is oriented at the predetermined angle, a series circuit is completed between the indicator and the energy source. As one example, the gauge can be used to ascertain the angle of a saw blade with respect to a saw table.
