Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A goniometer for measuring an angle of a surface of an object is provided. The goniometer includes a frame with an engagement element configured for engaging the object. A laser generator is carried by the frame and is configured for emitting a laser beam onto the surface of the object when the object engages the engagement element. The goniometer further includes a scale carried by the frame. The laser beam is reflected from the object towards the scale and the scale is configured for indicating an angle of the surface of the object onto which the laser beam is directed when emitted by the laser generator. The object may be a creping blade and the goniometer may be used in order to measure the grind angle of the creping blade.
