    Angle plate calibration

    I just received a new angle plate and want to check its accuracy. There was no sheet included and it looks cheap. I don't have another angle plate but do have a fairly well set up shop.
    List of tools available (please include all suggestions as I might have missed a tool or two).
    Surface plate 2 X 2ft and 6in X 6 in
    Height gages
    dial indicators galore
    precision squares
    rotary table
    sine bars and related equipment
    surface grinder
    mill
    lathe
    etc. etc.

    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance.
