    Digital or analog calipers

    My old calipers have passed on. I was looking for new ones and since they have come out with ones that read in fractions since I bought mine I thought I would try one. Thought it would not require a post for help in deciding which one but it seems nothing is ever easy anymore. Maybe it is...

    Digital SLR camera?

    I have been shooting many, many pics for the article I'm doing. My old 2.1 MP Olympus with wide angle lens is fine for the process shots, but now it is time for the "lead photo" which will require pics taken with an 8 to 10 (or more) MP digital camera. My wife has an 8 MP pocket camera, but...

    Wixey digital fence readout gauge

    I know several of us recently bought this gauge when Woodcraft had them on sale. I have installed mine but cannot get it calibrated correctly. The typical Chinese manual leaves much to be desired and doesn't mention how to calibrate it. I move the fence to the point that it is touching the blade...

    HF Digital Angle Gauge. Anyone used one?

    Has anyone used this Angle Gauge from Harbor Freight? Is it accurate? Can it be zeroed out against any surface like a Wixey? Or should I just wait for the Wixey to go on sale again?

It seem like this Wixey Model will fit the Delta 22-580 13" Planer. I would have to pick a weekend to try and mount this...

    Digital Angle Gauge

    Got the Nov. Woodcraft flyer the other day. In it is a digital angle gauge. You set gauge on surface of TS and zero it. Then you attach it to the blade (magnets hold it in place) and tilt blade to desired angle of tilt. Readout shows tilt to 1/10 of a degree. Wixley, the folks who gave us the...

    Digital Set-Up Gauge

    Shop Notes, issue #87, page 7, has a really neat height gauge that uses a digital caliper for measuring height of bits and blades. Unfortunately (ha,ha) it ONLY reads to the 100th.
