0.1 degree error!!!!! My fingers can not detect that error so the tool is good for me.

"G" and Jim,
I realize my error soon after Jim's post.
Thanks to you both!

I then put the meter on the vertical arm and it read 90.0 back to horizontial and it read 0.1 back to vertical = 90.1 back to horizontal = 0.1 So as advertised, the device seems accurate and precise to +/- 0.1 degrees. Rotating mine front to back gives similar accuracy - your case may not be quite square, John.
