Most depth gauges require you to hold the router "up-side-down" / "router-bit-up" and then carefully adjust the router bit's depth. This means the weight of the router and gravity work against you.
These are easier to use. They let you adjust the depth "router-bit-down". Simply...
Release the depth control on your router.
Rest the base of the router on the segmented rims of the depth gauges.
The router bit will then bottom out at the gauge's specified depth.
Lock the depth control on your router.
These are designed so that they nest nicely and have the depth label printed into them.
I did every 1/8" from 1/8" - 3/4" because this covers what I tend to use the most in the shop.
If there are enough requests in the comments I can do a larger set at 1/16th or add some larger depths.
If you use these in your shop let me know what you make. If you #madebythisguy on instagram I'll see it!
