Slot Sizer

Want a quick way to know how thick a piece of material is? Grab this file and cut/engrave it and you'll have a set of slots to test a corner of each piece you're working with.

Project Details

While it ultimately doesn't take the place of a great pair of calipers, you can quickly find a slot size that will work for you.

Thoughts and Tips:

• I initially cut this for myself from Glowforge Draftboard and I engraved that text on the design. However, you can likely use any material you like.
  
  
• Technically, all materials and thicknesses and settings can create slightly different amounts of kerf and therefore change the size of the slot, but the amount of change should be quite minimal.
