Delta - Deluxe Protractor-Style Gauges
Delta no longer offers a miter gauge accessory.
Oct 25, 2005
The Delta Deluxe is an accessory miter gauge that offers good value for the money. It’s a traditional design with the head mounted on a steel bar by means of a 4-in.-tall clamping handle. The cast and machined protractor head on the model I looked at was straight and square to the table.
The Delta Deluxe uses a spring-loaded pin for positive stops, which work well and are adjustable. There is an optional cam-action clamp attachment, but no auxiliary fence or stop available.

Tite-Mark Marking Gauge
These gauges can be easily and precisely adjusted with one hand, which allows you to set the tool while holding a ruler or workpiece in the other. The quality is exceptional, and all have sharp cutters that offer great visibility.
