Digital Height Gauge
Description
3D printed frame for converting a cheap digital caliper into a precise height gauge. It can be operated standing upright and lying flat. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/hEKdTE7rHx4" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> You can measure: * the extension of the router bit on your router table * the distance between fence and router bit * the extension of your circular saw blade * distances with the still usable caliper jaws * etc The caliper used is a digital "Carbon Fiber Composites Digital Caliper" for around 5€. You find it on amazon, aliexpress, etc. Other calipers very likely fit too, but I cannot guarantee for that. The caliper is glued into the frame with a double sided tape. Assembly time: 5min. Credits: The idea is rather old. See e.g. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4243056 and https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4603876 and others.
