While most designs rotate their angle from a pivot somewhere above the surface of the material, the AutoAngle has a “virtual” pivot point that is exactly on the surface of the material. This means the point of your drill bit enters the material at exactly the same point, regardless of drilling angle. Which, in turn, means you can locate your hole by aligning the index marks on the base of the AutoAngle to crosshairs on your material, even when you’re drilling at an angle. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThat feature alone puts the AutoAngle\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e in a class of its own, but we didn’t stop there. We built in a versatile fence and stop system that makes it a snap to position the AutoAngle at fixed distances from a square corner. The guide rods are extendable and work with both the fence and the flip stops. You can add extra flip stops to drill a series of holes all the same distance from the edge of the material. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe protractor is locked in place\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e by two large, comfortable hand-grips.
