General Tools 17 Square Head Metal Protractor (17XXX)

Needed a protractor quickly, the one I wanted was out of stock, but this is OK, it is not a proffesional engineers protractor but nor is the price, it does the job and seems to be quite accurate, you get what you pay for !! For this price alone I recommend it.

Ótimo acabamento e medição precisa. Escala bem definida e gravada, fácil leitura.

I've had the square version of this (#17) for about 10 years, using it off and on as a woodworking hobbyist. Having been very pleased with it, I decided to buy a backup just in case. Bought this rounded one (#18), and am pleased. Appears to be the same good quality as my other one, and I figure I'm good for another many years. One critique ... The finish on my old one is not as glossy as this one, and I don't think it's from use. But the difference can be felt in setting the gauge, where the slightly rougher finish helps the gauge keep setting without potentially slipping.

Well built and very accurate for my woodworking needs

Needed something for my son for home for his math homework. We had one from a certain company with a mustache, and it was an utter piece of junk, so we wanted something more useful, not plastic. This looked like it would work, and was metal. So we gave it a try. Love that unlike the others we were using, the standard arched plastic ones, it's easy to draw the angle with a single placement of the protractor and a single movement of the pencil. The thumb screw tightens for people who need that to hold it steady while using it. I was worried the size would be a bit awkward, but it's proven to not be the case. Can't beat it for the price, best protractor I've ever had.

Perfect for machining or anything you need to know the angle
