When you consider that a degree wheel can easily be used with most turning tools they are well worth the added cost if you have the need. Just food for thought :beer:

be aware with degree wheels ..... I bought one from a v8 / hot rod shop only to discover that the v8's all turn the wrong way ( thats yanks for ya :lol: :lol: , dont even drive on the right side of the road .. well they do but its wrong :D :D :lol: ) any how atdc was actually btdc and it all became to confusing, so I printed one off from a file on paso cam timing from this web site and glued it to a bit of sheet ally ( one of Dianne's baking trays ) and cut it out ( and sneaked the remains back into the cupboard ..... fortunatly I was a safe distance away when the crime was later discovered ) :lol: :lol: I offered the theory that the hole would improve heat flow in the oven ..... she didn't buy it :mad: and resolved herself that yet another common house hold item had martyered itself to the cause ( motorcycling )......aaaaah kiwi ingenuity :)

Hey Mctool, you could have maintained the peace ( its called domestic tranquility)
if you had just glued it over the backwards( american) degree wheel.

Give the poor girl a break, once in a while
