Chop Saw Alignment Gauges
MasterGage tools help verify the blade fence table and stop references that affect chop saw setup. Establish a measured reference before adjusting the machine for repeatable square crosscuts.
Machine Set Up
Chop saw setup centers on a square blade-to-fence relationship a stable table reference and correctly set stops. MasterGage tools can assist with checking those geometric relationships before adjustment. Follow the saw manufacturer’s setup and safety instructions and make test cuts in scrap material before production work.

• Check blade-to-fence squareness
• Verify table and fence reference surfaces
• Confirm stop settings against a known measurement
• Improve repeatability for repeated crosscuts
• Troubleshoot out-of-square cuts methodically

MasterGage® Professional Package
The MasterGage Professional is a broad woodworking-machine alignment, calibration, setup, and troubleshooting system. It combines a precision dial indicator, height scales, protractor capability, and accessories for measured setup across compatible machines.
MasterGage® Classic Package
The MasterGage Classic is a versatile non-angular woodworking-machine alignment and setup system. Use its precision-ground body, dial indicator, scales, and accessories to check heights, squareness, parallelism, and applicable machine relationships.
Universal Angle Guide & Height Gauge
Transfer and read woodworking angles, set saw blade or router-bit height, and work from a clear physical reference with the Universal Angle Guide & Height Gauge. It reads 0 to 180 degrees in 1/2-degree increments and includes fractional and metric height gauges.
MasterPlate
Use the MasterPlate as a broad, precision-ground reference surface for aligning compatible table saws and other saws. Its 6 x 10 inch aluminum plate provides more usable measuring surface than a toothed saw blade when checking miter-slot parallelism, blade squareness, miter settings, and bevel settings.
