Painter's tape is much cheaper than an Angler.

I have drawn a line on my machine from the needle to the edge and use it for making the diagonal for the binding.

there was a plastic template for this years ago but your way is easier and also much less expensive I have also pressed them to save drawing the line but your way is a great time saver thanks for sharing

Good for you! Did you know there several "tools" that you won't have to buy that do essentially what you came up with on your own. Give yourself a pat on the back and a big hug!
