Sometimes you will find yourself in a situation where you need to join two pieces of wood on the angle and quite often it will happen where you are trying to customize doorways and stuff like this. This is where the angle base is helpful to have. Let's say you pre-set it at 45 degrees and you have the pieces cut already. It will allow you to place the biscuit in side position, that when you put them together and you put some glue it will create a very very strong joint. It is one of the things that in professional work a lot of guys are using and doing. So it is a very useful tool and by utilizing this little nifty feature you can make your life quite easier. Once used, you return it to zero position or straight angle and you are ready to do the next cut.
