Place the protractor on top of the timber and align the protractor's baseline with the edge of the timber. Mark the edge of the timber at the protractor's center mark.

Use a protractor to lay out angle cuts for turns in your edging that are not 90 degrees. Take these steps: Determine the desired angle for the completed turn, divide that angle in half, then mark the timber along the top of the protractor at the resulting angle. For example, if the edging will turn at 120 degrees (forming an obtuse angle), mark the top of the timber at the 60-degree line on the protractor. Finally, draw a straight line through the 60-degree mark and the center mark to create an angled cutting line. Cut the timber along the line. Please note that perishable goods (such as turf and bulk bags of soil), and made to measure items (Burbage Fencing/Gates/Railings etc) are excluded from return.
