An angle divider includes a body portion with a proximate end and a distal end. A distal end pivot point is positioned in the distal end of the body portion. A fixed arm and a removable arm are pivotally mounted to the distal end pivot point. The arms and pivot with respect to the distal end pivot point. An adjustable pivot is mounted for sliding movement within an elongated slot formed in the body portion. Brackets interconnect the arms to the adjustable pivot. Movement of the arms results in movement of the adjustable pivot longitudinally along the body portion. A lock 26 locks the adjustable pivot with respect to the body portion, which locks the arms in place with respect to the body portion. The removable arm can be removed from the distal end pivot point and the adjustable pivot point to split the angle.

A cutting guide includes a first guide structure having a base, a first saw support, and a second saw support. The first saw support is attached to the base and defines a first saw contact surface. The second saw support is attached to the base and defines a second saw contact surface that is spaced apart from the first saw contact surface so as to define an elongated cutting slot therebetween. The elongate cutting slot defines (i) a first slot portion, (ii) a second slot portion that is contiguous with the first slot portion, and (iii) a third slot portion that is contiguous with the second slot portion. The second slot portion is interposed between the first slot portion and the third slot portion.

An adjustable miter gauge for use with a table saw includes a miter attachment and an adjustable guide bar coupled to the miter attachment. The miter attachment rests on a working surface of the table saw. The guide bar is received in a slot in the working surface. The guide bar includes a main body, which has first and second surfaces parallel to side walls of the slot, an adjustable body, which has a third surface parallel to the first surface, and a deformable biasing member. The adjustable body is coupled to the main body and slidable between a first position, wherein the second and third edge surfaces are coplanar, and a second position, wherein the second and third edge surfaces are not coplanar. The biasing member is arranged between the main body and the adjustable body and biases the adjustable body toward the second position.

A miter box includes, in a first direction, a through opening having a shape adapted to the cross-section of an element to be cut.

A crown molding jig device may include first and second frames. Each of the first and second frames may have a vertex portion, and first and second legs extending from the vertex portion. The second legs of the first and second frames may define a recess between. The first leg of the second frame may define first and second slots. The crown molding jig device may include first and second adjustable studs carried by the first leg of the first frame, and being slidably received by the first and second slots so that the recess is adjustable in size.

A cutting guide includes a first guide structure and a second guide structure. The first guide structure includes (i) a first base, (ii) a first saw support attached to the first base and defining a first saw contact surface, and (iii) a second saw support attached to the first base and defining a second saw contact surface that is spaced apart from the first saw contact surface so as to define a first elongated cutting slot therebetween. The second guide structure includes (i) a second base, (ii) a third saw support attached to the second base and defining a third saw contact surface, and (iii) a fourth saw support attached to the second base and defining a fourth saw contact surface that is spaced apart from the third saw contact surface so as to define a second elongated cutting slot therebetween.

An angle measuring gauge incorporates four arms pivotally connected to form a quadrilateral. The arms are connected to a guide bar that attaches to the quadrilateral along a diagonal and forms an axis of symmetry. A first corner of the quadrilateral is pivotally attached to the guide bar and the opposite corner of the quadrilateral is pivotally connected and is slidable along the guide bar to adjust the angles of the quadrilateral. In practice, the first corner of the quadrilateral is adjusted to conform to a desired angle, and the guide bar bisects the angle formed by the first corner and can be used to either ride in a miter slot of a cutting tool, or adjust a miter gauge of a cutting tool to cut accurate miters.

The present invention relates to a tool for measuring angles and corners and cutting trim to those angles.
