KAGYIFLY Router Table Setup Bars, 7pcs Aluminum Precision Setup Blocks Height Gauge Set for Router Table Saw Accessories and Angle Woodworking Set Up(Each Block has Different Thickness)

I really like these set up bars for so many things. They have a nice anadozed finish, are easy to read and are wide enough to sit squarely on the table or bench. The are a fraction of the cost of some of the other big names but they work the same. They are titled Router table however I use them for many applicaitons such as table saw, Domino depths, drill press depths, setting fences on saws and so on. Very nice quality and a wide variety of applications. I also like the precision of them and the included decimal equivillant to the fraction.

Well made anodized aluminum construction. Easy and accurate tool setup. I USE THESE WAY MORE THAN I THOUGHT I WOULD. highly recommend these.

Nice low cost alternative to the more expensive name brand sets. Good plastic case to keep them in. Metal was machined well, not cheap looking pressed material.

Just got these set up blocks. I checked the dimensional accuracy and they are all spot on, within 0.5-1 thou of the dimension. (Disclaimer: dimensions were checked with a digital caliper that displays down to 0.5 thou but not a calibrated caliper.) Plenty accurate for woodworking. I have not yet checked the angle accuracy or checked the blocks for flatness or warping yet. They are sturdy solid aluminum with a red anodized finish and nicely legible dimension markings in multiple places on each block. They feel good in the hand, with no sharp edges or corners. I will update this review if/when I have more information or opinions to add. So far, they get 👍 👍 and a Recommended from me.

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.

When I was shopping for these and ended up going with this set I was thinking that these would be nice to have. Since getting them I have found them to be indispensable. I almost never put them away when working on a project since it seems I almost always have a use for them. Next to my tape measurer and ruler these blocks are infinitely useful. I admit, when I was shopping for setup blocks I was pretty weary of all the nonsense name brands that seem to be all over these days. It was hard to find any blocks like these from known brands though so I went with this set since the reviews were good and the brand seems to specifically produce this product. They also had the nicest design that seemed the most useful. I verified the measurements of the blocks and they've all passed the test. When setting up a table saw or router for cuts an inch or smaller these blocks make that task extremely easy and quick. My table saws fence has clamps on both the front and back and if one is locked in the fence still moves on the other side which requires me to usually set the fence for both the front and back of the blade. With these blocks I can quickly set the block between the fence and the blade and easily lock in both front and back. Only thing to watch for is the width of the teeth are slightly wider than the blade so make sure you have the blade set low enough the block is accounting for that tooth width and not just the blades body. Beyond just the table saw fence these are also great for setting up blade heights as well as checking material widths and cut depths. They work just as easily for setting up my router table and router bit depth as well as my band saw. The blocks also each have angles though so far I haven't had a lot of uses for that function as of yet. The build quality seems pretty good. All the pieces came with a good finish and no flaking of the surface or wearing on the text. They have held up quite well with use as well and I have not noticed any real signs of wear at this point. Each block has pretty good heft to them so it seems they at least used good solid materials. They come in a case and the case is fine. It does the job but it isn't anything impressive. The foam is well cut to the size of each block but the latches to seal the case are a bit of a pain to use as there isn't a good surface to grab to open the latches. It does the job otherwise and a minor nuisance with the case isn't a big deal. Bottom line is these blocks are incredibly useful and a great investment. They make setting up equipment so much easier than using a tape measurer or ruler and are also great for verifying your measurements as well.

Amazing

Saw these on several woodworking videos and decided to give them a try for myself. Price was in my budget so why not. They came quickly and well packaged. The box that they are in is great for storing them in around the shop and keeps them protected from getting nicked and scratched up. I got the red colored set and the markings are plenty easy to read. They checked very accurate on my digital calipers. Makes setting up my router, height on my table saw blade or dado stack, etc. a breeze. Can be combined together to get a vast array of measurements. So if you're on a budget like I am, these are an awesome addition to your workshop. Highly recommend.

Good stuff
