Feickert Protractor - anyone use one?

very easy to use. the nice thing about it is that it is not dedicated to one arm as the mint lp or walltractor tools are.

Love my Feickert. Used it for a few different arms now. Works like a charm and I never have to worry about what arm I decide to use down the road as it will work for everything and has the curves for a couple of different mounting approaches, if your interested in that.

Cartridge alignment is only one aspect of a turn table set up, however crucial.

Agree, the Feikert protractor is convenient for set up of multiple brands of tone arms and cartridges, at best, a handy tool for a dealer.

Now think about this , with all the work and expense involved with analogue play back and as critical as cartridge alignment is.
Why would anyone stop short of precisly dialing in their cartridge with a Feikert when high precision protractor's like the Wally or MintLp are available?....Again I refer you to member Stringreen's thread on the MintLp.

Agreed with stiltskin. I have a feickert protractor. The line and dots is so much thicker than mintlp protractor. That itself clearly indicates the accuracy of mintlp compare to feickert. Anybody want to buy feickert which I uses 1-2x pls email me

More agreement with Stiltskin.

Even if the lines on the Feickert were as fine as those on the Mint, which they're not, it would still suffer from the fatal flaw of not being built on a mirror.

Without the parallax effect afforded by a mirror, it's impossible to by sure you're sighting precisely down the line you're trying to align the cantilever to. Unless you've used a mirrored protractor you've no idea how easy it is to be off by several degrees - which defeats the whole purpose.
