Finding angles without a protractor

As we chip away at a beautiful set of walnut library book cases, we need to handle some difficult angles.

Learn something new everyday thats very easy and almost error proof! I even understood. Good job.

you obviously know how to build cabinets, but your explanation of "how to find an angle" was confusing as hell. The only tape measure I saw you use....was the one included in the SketchUp program. what was the point in measuring the high point of each of those face frames?! Seems this method is only good if your project has been planned out in Sketchup.

Haha! Thats funny. Well if you dont use sketchup then you will need to do the geometrical math by hand to see what those measurements will be. theres no shortcut to the design phase. You either need to design on something like sketchup that will do the math for you, or you can do the math yourself. But you will be able to find that high spot either way and do it the way i did it
