A complete woodworking layout kit should include a reliable square (for checking 90° and 45° reference), a marking gauge or mortise gauge, a quality ruler or straight edge, and a caliper for precise thickness measurements. The Measuring & Layout collection covers all of these categories.

A digital angle cube measures and displays precise angles for setting table saw blade tilt, miter gauge angle, router bit height, and jointer fence angle. The iGaging Angle Cube reads to a tenth of a degree, making it far more precise than the graduated scales built into most machine fences.

Digital calipers measure inside and outside dimensions, depth, and step measurements with instant numerical readout. In the shop, they verify stock thickness, check joint gaps, confirm mortise and tenon dimensions, and measure dowel or bit diameters quickly and without interpretation error.

A bench square set provides precision reference squares in multiple sizes for checking machine alignment, verifying assembly square, and setting tool angles. The iGaging Bench Square Set includes ground steel squares that are accurate to within industry-standard tolerances for woodworking.

The Wixey Digital Planer Readout mounts to portable thickness planers and displays the cutting depth digitally, replacing or supplementing the planer's built-in scale. It allows consistent stock thickness across multiple boards without measuring each one individually.

Setup bars—like the 5-Piece Brass Bar Set—are precision-ground spacers used to set router bit height, table saw blade height, and fence gaps without measuring tapes. They provide repeatable, tactile references for common dimensions.

Yes—they serve different purposes. A square establishes perpendicular and 45° reference lines from an edge. A marking gauge scribes lines parallel to an edge at a set distance. Both are essential for laying out joints such as mortise and tenons, dadoes, and rabbets.

The 46" Aluminum Straight Edge is designed to span full panel widths for layout, scoring, and checking machine table flatness. It is the longest format in this collection and suits cabinet and panel work.

Free shipping is available on most orders over the qualifying threshold. See the shipping policies for current rates and any applicable exclusions.

The Infinity Tools learning center includes guides on machine setup, measuring techniques, and layout fundamentals. The Digital Machine Readouts collection also has tools specifically designed for accurate saw and planer calibration.
