but if you have to go by the scale and curser when setting the fence height you’re unlikely to get exactly the same height repeatedly.Snip.

Whenever I'm not using the board thickness gauge but the pointer gauge (not often, e.g. when using the machine on thinner boards), if possible, I try to keep the fence height setting on the machine unchanged until everything is milled and checked or dry fit. This is a habit I keep for critical settings when using other machines as well such as the table saw fence, router fence and drill press press/depth gauge.

Anybody already doing this??  I tend to find myself fussing with the  fence height and setup blocks would idiot proof the process somewhat.

I found someone on Etsy selling a custom 3D printed depth gauge for the DF-500 that includes stops at 12-15-18-19-22-25mm. Really handy for centering a domino on sheet goods and 1x stock.
