Print one gauge (light color), one compound wedge (any color) and one pointer (dark color) for best contrast. Use ultra fine point sharpie to make gauge numbers and degree marks more visible.
Refer to video for installation. Use large flat blade screw driver to drive wedge into place to clamp the protractor to the wooden stand. It should only fit one way due to the double angled faces.
