Imperial Thickness Gauge

The Seneca Woodworking Imperial Thickness Gauge for the Festool Domino DF 700 allows you to quickly and effortlessly adjust the Domino fence offset to center your mortise on a variety of imperial material thicknesses. The gauge installs in less than a minute using a Torx T10 bit (not included), and is a direct replacement for the metric thickness gauge included with your Domino DF 700.

The Imperial Thickness Gauge is CNC machined from Delrin material and designed to center on 1/2″, 5/8″, 3/4″, 7/8″, and 1″ nominal ply thicknesses.

**NOTE!**  This gauge requires one of our Domi-Shims to function properly. If you don’t already own our Domi-Shim set you can purchase the gauge and single shim in a set below.

The Domino DF700 fence has a lower travel limit that would normally prevent it from centering on 1/2″. 5/8″ or 3/4″ ply so a shim is required to enable centering on these thicknesses.  The Imperial Thickness Gauge for DF700 is designed to work with the 1/2″ Seneca Woodworking Domi-Shim.    We sell the Imperial Thickness Gauge two ways:  In a set with the required shim, and by itself for people who already own the Seneca Woodworking Domi-Shim set.   The D7IG04 Imperial Thickness Gauge will not work properly without this required shim installed.

Domi-Shim

The Seneca Woodworking  Domi-Shim™ is a machined aluminum shim that attaches to the fence on the Festool Domino XL DF 700 and allows centering on narrower stock than was previously possible. This shim allows the Domino XL fence to adjust all the way to the cutter centerline, allowing centering on material thinner than the Domino XL fence’s  lower travel limit would previously allow.   This shim can be used with the Domino XL in three ways:

• By itself, using a rule or setup block to adjust the fence to achieve the proper offset for a variety of material thicknesses, both imperial or metric.
• By itself with the Domino XL fence offset gauge set to “15mm.” This creates the correct offset for centering a mortise on 1/2″ nominal plywood.
• With our Imperial Thickness Gauge that allows fast adjustment on a range of imperial material thicknesses.  The Imperial Thickness Gauge and Domi-Shim™ are available in a set.

The Domi-Shim™ is machined from aluminum, black anodized and laser-engraved. Mounting hardware is included.
