    Starrett Angle Guage Reassembly? No. C183

    Anyone know the assembly sequence for this? I took it apart to clean off the factory machine oil and applied a wax coat.
    But I fumbled when I got the knurled nut off and all the parts fell to the floor so I didn't get a chance to see in what order they came off.
    This is a Starrett No. C183 Protractor.

    From the base:

    Protractor arm
    Larger washer keyed to the protractor base
    Spring washer
    Nut

    Erich, thank you for posting this. I’ve had one laying around and tried several times to get it to tighten. Appears I was missing the spring washer. Had one in my “washers” bin and now have a working protractor.

    And Bruce, thank you!
