Feickert Protractor - anyone use one?


Looking around, I came across the Dr Feickert protractor.

Does anyone have one and is it worth the price and does it really help you setup your TT better than other standard mats?

I use AccuTrak arc protractors for my arms.  I have a TT where I can adjust P2S distance easily.  I think this point was made earlier, with Arc protractors you don't need highly accurate P2S measurement, just need accurate enough to get within the overhang adjustment range of the headshell. When you are on the arc you have the overhang correct.
For most cartridges where the cantilever is visible, the AccuTrak allows for very precise adjustment of zenith. Especially with a magnifying glass.  For some cartridges, a mirror would be helpful.  All this being said, if money grew on trees, I would enjoy using the SMARTractor which seems to offer all these features.
