I made this little mitre box. It goes in 5-degree steps from 0 to 45 degrees. I don't know if that will actually be useful, but it gives me something to play with. Although I made it with the saw shown, I would use it with a fret saw, which is narrower and runs in the slots nicely. The important thing is not that the angles are super accurate, but that they are repeatable. I think.
Not sure if I will ever use this for anything.
These are guides that you can buy or make yourself to accurately and easily make tricky cuts and routs.

I make my own marker dots with a 1/4" plug cutter and whatever scrap I have around. I've made every color of plastic, maple, rosewood, purpleheart, and others. I just ordered a sheet of 3mm ABS for five bucks that will produce a lot more dots than you could buy for that much, and also better ones. Many of the 1/4" dots you get are not really 1/4", thanks to the @%^#$ metric system. You make 1/4" holes, and then the dots are undersized. I don't have a 6mm Forstner bit. The dots I make actually have to be tapped into the holes, they're that good a fit.
