Key benefits - Faster, more accurate setup: Lets you set table saw blade and planer head height quickly and precisely, reducing trial-and-error adjustments compared with a straight rule. - Lightweight and comfortable: Hollow-body design reduces weight and improves grip for steadier handling during setup. - Durable construction: Made from aluminum alloy for long service life and resistance to wear in a workshop environment. - Versatile use: Works for height measurements, blade adjustments and depth settings on common woodworking machines. What this tool does for you - Speeds setup time so you can move from measurement to cutting with less downtime. - Improves repeatability so cuts and planing runs stay consistent across boards. - Reduces guesswork that can cause rework, wasted material, or uneven finishes. Main features - Function: Height gauge for precise measurement of saw blade and planer head positions. - Material: Aluminum alloy construction for strength, lightness, and wear resistance. - Design: Hollow profile for reduced weight and a more comfortable grip that aids accurate positioning. - Compatibility: Intended for use with table saws and planers for setting blade and head heights and depth stops. Practical applications (examples) - Setting blade height for clean rip cuts or crosscuts so the cutter depth exactly matches the thickness of your cut. - Adjusting planer head height to achieve uniform thickness across wide boards after rough milling. - Establishing depth for dado or groove cuts on a table saw to ensure consistent joinery fits. Why you should choose this gauge - Clear functional benefits: faster setup, better control, and consistent results on common woodworking machines. - Built to last: aluminum alloy and a compact, ergonomic form make it suitable for regular workshop use. - Practical and simple: No electronics or calibration routines—just a straightforward tool to get accurate height and depth settings. Use and care tips - Use against a reference surface on the saw or planer fence or throat plate to take measurements. - Keep the gauge clean and free of chips and resin; wipe with a soft cloth after use. - Store in a dry place to preserve finish and dimensional stability. Note: Designed to assist with height and depth settings for table saws and planers. Check fit and clearance on your specific machine before use.
