I wanted to check the alignment of my tablesaw and blade. The unit is well built and functions as described. I like digital readouts over analog which is a nice feature. I liked how the quality seemed good, how it went into the slot guide for the miter and fit snuggle. I really have no issue with this and give it a high rating however did I really need this to check the tablesaw alignment? No and probably could have saved myself a little money but now I own it and will utilize it when needed to check alignments.

Pros: The unit will function as advertised, the digital indicator is accurate as stated which was confirmed with a set of Mitutoyo Grade 2 Gauge Blocks. The instructions are clear. I have a Granite top cabinet saw and assembly required installation of the secondary granite top to the left of the miter slot thus the left miter slot does have minor variation in the slot width however accurate measurements can be obtained by ensuring that spring pressure is to the left keeping the gauge riding the right side of the miter slot. Without too much effort I was able to get the fence within .006 inches throughout the length of the fence with repeatable results. Purchased in 2019 and have had no problem with the units. Battery is removed when storing the unit.Cons: The plastic washers do not fit in the cross bar assembly so you’ll need to trim one of them so you do not damage the cross assembly with repeated setups and tests.

I used this to align the blade and rip fence on my table saw. The blade was within 0.002”, so that was OK. The fence was out 0.020” and that required correction. The gauge went together very easily and worked very well. It fits the miter slot very well with zero slop. The aluminum parts are very rigid and fit together precisely. It slides well in the slot without binding.The gauge works very well and is easy to see from all angles. It’s accurate to 0.0005”. It allowed me to adjust the rip fence to 0.001”. The table saw has never be so well aligned. All because of this high quality device.I recommend and would buy again.

I bought this jig because when looking for dial gauges it was only a few bucks more then just a gauge and I could get my new saw aligned quicker that way.Setup is super simple, and you are off to alignment. It fit in my Delta Contractors Saw Mitre Gauge slot tightly and the spring loaded buttons help secure it. Like with any gig the minimal slop is easily offset by ensuring you pull it back to make sure it is seated in the track the same each time. My saw started off .013" out of alignment. It took a bit of tinkering but it is now down to .001. The fence was put into alignment as well with similar results. I ran some test cuts, checked it and the alignment was exactly the same. I checked again the following morning and the measurements were the same.The wood I cut surely experienced a change in humidity and moved more than 1/128 of an inch over night. By my logic its consistent and the saw is locked in place. Could I have built one, sure. But the savings amount wasn't very big and the digital gauge rocks. Is it the highest quality gauge ever made? Probably not is it easy to read and does it give consistent results...absolutely.

I used this gauge to tune up my table saw and it worked extremely well for the purpose. The gauge seemed accurate and my resultant tuned up Delta saw preforms greatI have 2 complaints, the first is that the little plastic washers that come with it do not fit, which seems a little sloppy from iGaging, but certainly did not effect the results, it just makes it a little tougher to tighten down and untighten the bolts it comes with.The bigger issue is that it's very hard to tighten this into a miter slot accurately. There are pressure points on the bar to keep it sturdy in the slot as you use it, but I found that I still had to push it against one side of the miter slot every time I moved it to make sure it was snug against the edge. The magnets helped hold it steady, but when trying to tune something to within 0.001", it would be nice to have a more snug fit so there is no play in the slot.

Been looking at saw gauge tools, most are double the price of this one. Thought I'd take a chance and order it. Ordered Thursday 1/3/2013, tool arrived unexpectedly today Monday 1/7/2013. I used it today in conjunction with a PALS kit to tune up my Delta contractor saw. This little tool almost made the job fun, so much better and faster than trying to measure with a ruler or stick. Digital part of tool easy to use, readout plainly visible. Spring pins in the slot bar automatically adjust to your miter slot, and magnets help hold in place, but still slides easily. Seems to be very accurate, with easily repeatable readings after sliding back and forth.The slot bar rocked a little end to end in the miter slot, not sure why, but didn't seem to affect readings. Only other negatives were the battery installed in the tool was dead, so good thing they include a spare; and the little nylon washers for the machine screws were too tight and difficult to install.No need to spend more for a saw gauge. Thrilled to have this tool.
