🔧 Elevate Your Craftsmanship with Precision!
The Setup Blocks Woodworking set includes 14 precision-engineered aluminum gauge blocks, each with varying thicknesses from 1/8" to 1/2". Designed for versatility, these blocks serve multiple functions including height, depth, square stacking, and angle measurements. The anodized finish ensures durability while the laser-carved labels provide clarity. A convenient storage case is included for protection and organization.

Very nice but design can be improved
All the blocks measured within 1/1000th of the stated size in thickness, height, and depth. Anodizing is well done but could be smoother, this kind of textured surface seems to be very common in Chinese made tools. Storage case could be a little more robust with better latches given the weight of the full set, but it works and doesn’t have any useless leftover space inside. The bottom hard foam is excellent, with they used the same for the top piece instead of the squishy cheap stuff. Lastly, the angled ends really need to be squared off. The surfaces are too small for the angles to be useful in any way, and the fact that they aren’t square limits stacking them to create thicker reference measurements. Almost feels like the designers copied the highly useful aspects of these blocks from other manufacturers but didn’t really understand how setup blocks are used and “innovated” the angled ends when a squared end would actually be truly functional. So, overall these are well made and are multifunctional, but a design flaw keeps them from being great.

Great height guages.
I hate setup bars. I stopped playing with building blocks decades ago. Stacking them up to get the right height is a PITA. I also have a set of the Kreg height gauges. They're fine but there aren't enough of them. This set is perfect.

These are the best gauge/setup block on the market. Far more versatile than a standard rectangle gauge block. The steps, notches, thickness, and angles make these extremely useful. Planing to get more for my home shop.

Makes set up so easy
Started using these for woodworking. They are excellent for so many uses and getting set ups exactly right very quickly.

It is great
It is everything it says it is and it has many uses rather than just a few.

Excellent quality
I got these today and immediately took my calipers to each block and they were all bang on. Feels very nice in the hand. The anodized surface is stunning. The box is okay and nicely separates each block with a label. I wish they didn’t put a sticker on the top, but I can probably work it off eventually.

Fantastic
They're precise to the thousandths. Used a micrometer and precision calipers to measure all the depths and heights. I'm not able to precisely measure the angles without doing a lot more work, but from what I can tell they're close enough for woodworking... Which is what I am using them for. Great product at a better price than any competitor.I like this style better than the ones that are just a block since I find these a little more versatile and help to maintain accuracy when setting up for various tasks in the shop. I would definitely buy this again if needed.

Great little tool on the router table
Great product, strong durable and accurate. My one complain is with the angles built on one side of the blocks. I would have preferred that this side of the unit have a uniform 90 degree angle to allow to use the block as a square as the top and right sides of the block are mean for measuring.
