Use the MasterGage Classic when you need a versatile, non-angular system for checking and setting up woodworking machines from measured references. It helps make the relationships behind machine performance visible: height, depth, squareness, parallelism, and other linear setup conditions that can be difficult to judge by eye.
What the Classic helps you do
- Check and set machine height, depth, square, and parallel references
- Verify setup after maintenance, transport, blade changes, or troubleshooting
- Measure applicable runout with the included dial indicator and correct accessory setup
- Check machine components across compatible table saws, jointers, planers, routers, drill presses, band saws, sanders, mortisers, and more
- Return to known linear settings more reliably
The Classic is a practical choice when your work does not require the Professional model’s protractor and Instant Recall features. Its scales, dial indicator, miter-slot cradle bar, depth rod, precision rod, and compatible accessories provide a flexible system for many machine-specific tasks.
Use the product manual and machine manufacturer’s instructions for the correct procedure. Disconnect power before setup work, verify the configuration for the machine, and make test cuts before production work.
