    Miter Gauge Upgrade

    I am looking to upgrade the miter gauge on my Delta Contrator Saw. Various catalogs show new miter gauges from $50 for the basics to nearly $300 with many bells and whistles. My budget will only allow about $150 which will cover some of the mid-range Incra and Kreg miter gauges. What would you...

    Why Did I Ask For A Wixey Angle Gauge For Fathers Day?

    I did ask and I did receive. I went to the shop and checked all my set-ups, table saw blade angles, jointer fence, tablesaw fence, CMS set-ups, bandsaw setups, and more. Every one that I had set up using my conventional squares and measuring devices were dead-on - NOT! Thats why I asked for...

    Shop built slicing gauge

    I have wanted to make one of these for quite some time and currently I am working on a mahogany top which has maple crossbanding so I definitely had a need for such a tool. Got my latest edition of FWW and lo and behold, there was an article in it about such a gauge. I made this out of some BE...

    Bandsaw tension gauge

    I'm setting up my first bandsaw and having some troubles tensioning a 1/4" blade. I suspect my tracking problems may be because I'm over tensioning the blade. Or maybe I'm under tensioning it? I have no idea. :-? I thought I'd see if anyone in the Cary area has a blade tensioning gauge...

    Depth Gauge

    Here's a way to get more use/utility from your dial indicator. Yesterday I plowed a dado that was 1/64th too deep. It made a difference. This morning I made this and it works! As you can see, I didn't spend much time on it, but now I know it works, I'll dress it up later. I wanted to post 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...

    Alignment Gauge

    I have becoming very frustrated with trying to set fence alignment on my old RT. They just imprinted a scale on the RT surface that has worn off very quickly! Last week I received the latest issue of Woodsmith magazine (Vol. 28 / No. 167) in the mail and low and behold they had my solution...

    Thickness gauge for planer

    I don't know who is subscribed to Shop Notes's woodworking tips by email, but I just read an email on setting up a dial indicator on your planer so you can set it to the precise depth you want your piece of wood to be planed to and when you reach that thickness, is will tell you. It sounded...

    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. That is about 1/2 of a 64th. Currently, Harbor freight has this caliper ( item #93293) on sale for $7.99, thru May...
