    Locating A Corner on a Mill

    This work was inspired by a very clever tool presented by Marv Klotz on
    Homemadetools.net (http://www.homemadetools.net/forum/one-tool-two-uses-
    27184 ).

    Given a block held at an arbitrary angle in a mill vise, how do you locate the top corner? Marv's tool is elegant. Of course, I'm always looking for other ways to do the same thing. Here is a method that uses no special tools. It assumes the faces of the block are flat but not necessarily perpendicular.
