Is anyone using a magnetic table saw angle indicator? I’m looking for one that I can stick to the blade to set up my angles since the gauge on most table saws just get you in the ball park. I would prefer a dial over digital, but it seams most are digital these days. Is anyone using one and how do you like it?

I got a Wixey from Woodcraft, @ $29 or $39 and I like the way it works. I used it to set up the stops on the saws and the jointer and use it to square the jointer’s fence if I ever move it (which is rarely). My only complaint is a lack of a power button, so I take the battery out when it isn’t being used. I don’t mind at all that my accuracy is only to a tenth of a degree.
I have a wixy as well. I also use it for my jointer fence and for my miter saw. works really well.
