Hey guys, being a Festool guy, my Kapex came with a tool just like this and it has proven itself invaluable for laying out baseboard and the like. I got an email from woodpeckers for the Bora tool which is essentially the same as the one included with my kapex. Really a cool tool to have on hand, just thought I’d share 🙂
was just looking at this

So I would suggest going Bora. A lot cheaper through Woodpeckers and it’s the same thing. It’s actually a pretty cool tool
I bought the Bora Miter X a couple of weeks ago and I can say that it works nicely. So far I’ve only used it to save myself having to do some math, but I imagine that you could use it for mitering odd angles as well.
I recently picked up this one from Grizzly tools. Now there website says its unavailable. I do not remember what I paid for it, but I’m pretty sure it was around 25.00 or I would not have purchased it. I have not used it yet though. Home Depot
I just ordered one of these myself from woodpeckers! Thanks for cool info… 30 bucks is cheap!

Hahahahaha sorry bro 🙂
Its a mental thing the thought of paying for shipping seems like waste. It’s just how the mind works
Man if I was a finish carpenter….
