HOW COULD I WORK WITHOUT THIS THING | Digital Height Gauge

  • I always wanted to make a Digital Height Gauge for my router table. I used a digital calliper to realize this project. I also used just scrap pieces of plywood to build this Digital Height Gauge. It is really flexible in use. I can use it in various ways, it stands without holding it, and it fits in my router bit cabinet.

  • @bobbg9041

    Decent prototype for a mass made tool, but why chop up a digital caliper to make one when they cost less then a caliper.
    A digital height gadge would do the same thing and you can use that to set planer blades tablesaw blade height and a lot of other uses. And some of them are pretty cheap now.

    • @ISIMPLYBUILTIT
      @ISIMPLYBUILTIT  4 роки тому +1

      My height gauges can do exactly what you described. The caliper had his glass broken and one leg was damaged. So it was useless as a normal caliper. More over it had cost me 9 bucks.

    • @bobbg9041
      @bobbg9041 4 роки тому

      Then great way to use the broke tools parts for a new too insted of putting it in the trash.
      I seen people taking old dull files and making knifes out of them, a good marking knife would come in handy in the wood shop. I almost never turn down a .50cent tool at a garage sale it's always got a second life as something usefull maybe not what it was but as somthing.
      Never throw away carbide scrap. Look up it's current salvage price it's at the top of the list for value. Tool steel also can be a usefull tool as somthing else.
