GTS10XC depth gauge

thingiverse

Accurately adjust the depth of your blade on the Bosch GTS10XC. Based on an idea by a youtube video from Nachdenksport. The print parts are mounts for a digital linear scale 0-150 mm. You only need to print 3 parts for mounting the scale. Optional: If you do not want to rely on the magnets to mount the display, you can also print a display mount. For the scale mount: ----- Print one of spacer1, spacer2 and slidermount. The scale has to be mounted upside down - so turn the mount brackets by 180 degress. Also you must shorten the bar to 192..212mm. For mounting the scale bar you need to drill and thread two M5 holes - look at the photos. Use slider2 with its prolonged side to accurately space the hole not to near to the table - otherwise the saw can not fully tilt back to 90 degrees. Use 2pcs M5x8mm screws to mount the scale the the machine. Use 4pcs M3x6mm screws to mount the slidermount part to the slider of the scale. For the display mount (optional) ----- Print one of displaymount and strainrelief. Use 2pcs M6x12 screws with washer to mount the displaymount to the saw. Use 2pcs M3x6mm screws to mount the original display mount part from the scale to the 3d printed part. Use 2pcs M3x10 screws to mount the strain relief. Cable managemenet ----- The cable can be zip-tied to the motor cable. The remaining cable can then be-zip tied to a nice hole in the plastic inside the machine - look at the photos. <b> Happy printing! - And then please post a Make! Thank you very much! </b>
