Default Incidence Meter

Im gonna be setting the incidence on my Dalton 300 in the near future, and its about time I tracked down a new incidence meter seeing as Im not even sure where my old one is... What is everyone using now a days for incidence meters? Something nice and accurate, but easy to use and doesnt cost an arm and a leg. Any ideas out there? What has worked for others with good success? Thanks in advance for the help fellas!

Horizan Hobbies has a small Digital meter. Part number is HAN192 You might want to check these out. You can get longer bar also. All various parts you can get are between HAN192-HAN197. They sell for $60.

Default Re: Incidence Meter

I had bad luck with both the above. I have 4 Robart incedence meters. Easily 15 years old. They are within 3/10th of a degree of my 100.00 dollar digital meter. The others have long seen the trash can.
