Festool Domino Thickness Gauge | DF 500 Setup Blocks

Set your Festool Domino DF 500 fence height quickly and consistently with these precision setup blocks. Designed to simplify fence adjustments for common material thicknesses, these gauges help reduce setup time while improving repeatability from one project to the next.

Instead of measuring or adjusting the fence for every workpiece, simply select the appropriate setup block, position it under the fence, and lock your machine at the correct height. This makes repetitive joinery faster and helps maintain consistent mortise placement across multiple parts. The DF 500 already includes a board thickness gauge, but many users prefer dedicated setup blocks for quick, repeatable setups in the shop.

Each gauge is designed and manufactured by DigitalTimber using durable PETG plastic for long-lasting accuracy and everyday workshop use.
