Quick tip on how to measure angles on a bay window

When you catch yourself at a client's home and realize you forgot your protractor to measure the bay window angles, don't panic. You can substitute two business cards or a couple of pieces of cardboard, and a stapler to measure instead. This short video lesson demonstrates how easily this can be done. Select the play button to begin the lesson.

The graphic below shows what your finished template might look like, and a very useful item it is. Trace the angle onto the workorder or mail the stapled cards to the workroom to manufacture from.

As simple as this technique is, it is surprisingly accurate, and widely used.
