Bench saw blade height gauge

thingiverse

This is a bench saw blade height gauge tool. You can set the depth of cut for a blade in a work piece with considerable accuracy. You can print it directly on a 3D printer using the "Gabarit banc de scie.stl" file, but it won't have measurements text on it. You can write it by hand instead. Alternatively, you can use both a 3D printer and laser cutter to make this: 1: Print an oversized piece with the "Gabarit banc de scie_oversized.stl" file. 2: Flip your print and place it in the laser cutter, aligning it horizontally at a 90-degree angle to the side of your machine (see picture). 3: Engrave the text on it using the "Gavarit banc scie_Laser 001.ai" file. Use engrave alignment and cut at Bottom left. 4: Cut the outline with the laser using the "Gavarit banc scie_Laser 001.ai" file. A speed of 15mm/sec and a power of 15mA worked well for PLA plastic, although I'm not entirely sure about that.
