The other end has a screw that passes through a hole in the frame. It is this side that can be moved up or down to create various angles. There is a hole in the top of the frame that allows the angle vial to be viewed from above. The point of the angle shaft leads to a piece of metal with measurement marks. This piece of metal is attached to the frame with two screws.
