| What is the best protractor for setting overhang ? I too use the VPI provided protractor on my Aries 2/JMW 10.5 and it seems to work just fine. I have checked the setting with the DB protractor and the setting is confirmed by that one too so at least these two are congruent. Another option is to o... | |
