Key Features
Indexed Angle Stops Common polygon miter angles lock in with indexed stops, so setup is faster and repeat cuts are easier to trust. Built for Clean Cuts A sacrificial end block helps reduce back-side tear-out and pushes the offcut away from the blade, which matters when you are working with finished stock. Smarter Miter Gauge Design The Woodpeckers in-DEXABLE Miter Gauge adds practical details like a laser engraved reticle and a stop spur that keeps mitered ends from slipping under the stop.
Overview
The Woodpeckers in-DEXABLE Miter Gauge, model IMG-I, is a table saw miter gauge built for accurate angled crosscuts and repeatable length work. This is a miter gauge designed for table saw crosscutting and miter cutting. If you are tired of vague factory gauges, hard-to-repeat setups, or parts shifting when you need them to stay put, this tool goes straight at those problems.
The big draw here is the indexed angle system. The Woodpeckers in-DEXABLE Miter Gauge sets common polygon miter angles with indexed stops, which speeds up setup and takes some of the guesswork out of repeated angle work. When you need a non-indexed setting, the crystal-clear laser engraved reticle gives you a cleaner visual reference for dialing in other angles.
On the cut-quality side, Woodpeckers built in details that matter in actual use, not just on a spec sheet. The sacrificial end block helps prevent back-side tear-out, which is a real benefit when you are cutting hardwood trim, veneered stock, or parts that need a clean visible face. That same block also helps push the offcut away from the blade, which improves control and keeps the cut area cleaner.
Another practical touch is the stop design. The stop has a spur that fits back into the fence to keep mitered ends from sneaking under the stop. That solves a common annoyance with angled work where the part can shift position at the last second and throw off the finished length. For repeat parts, that kind of detail saves scrap fast.
From the images and marked construction, this is clearly aimed at woodworkers who care about setup accuracy, repeatability, and cleaner results at the saw. It is also made in the USA, which will matter to buyers who want domestic machining and the kind of fit and finish Woodpeckers is known for.
The right buyer for this miter gauge is the woodworker, cabinetmaker, trim carpenter, or serious DIY user who makes a lot of angled cuts and wants better control than a basic stock gauge can give. If your work involves frames, segmented projects, trim parts, cabinet components, or repeat crosscuts where length and angle both have to land right, this is the kind of upgrade that makes the table saw easier to trust.
Get Repeatable Angles Without Fighting the Setup
When you are cutting parts that need to match, angle accuracy is only half the job. The setup also has to stay consistent from piece to piece. This gauge is built around that idea.
- Indexed stops help set common miter angles quickly
- Designed for repeatable crosscutting and miter cutting on a table saw
Cleaner Results on Finished Stock
Clean cuts matter more when the part is already surfaced, profiled, or ready for assembly. Small support features make a big difference here.
- Sacrificial end block helps reduce back-side tear-out
- Offcut is directed away from the blade for better cut control
Built Around Practical Accuracy
This is the kind of tool that earns its keep by preventing little setup mistakes before they turn into wasted material. The angle reference is easy to read, and the stop system is built to support real joinery and trim work.
- Crystal-clear laser engraved reticle for setting non-indexed angles
- Stop spur fits back into the fence to keep mitered ends from slipping under the stop

Pro Tip
If you are cutting prefinished or visible-face material, keep a fresh sacrificial end block installed. That is the simplest way to get the tear-out benefit this gauge is designed to give you.
Tool Nut’s Take
Tool Nut’s Take
Woodpeckers in-DEXABLE Miter Gauge for woodworkers who are done settling for a stock gauge
This is a smart upgrade for anyone who wants cleaner angle work, faster repeat setups, and fewer little mistakes at the table saw.
- Who it’s for: Woodworkers, cabinetmakers, trim carpenters, and serious DIY users making accurate crosscuts and miter cuts.
- Why it stands out: The indexed stops, laser engraved reticle, sacrificial end block, and anti-slip stop detail all solve real problems you run into during repeat angle work.
- Worth knowing: This is not about adding power to your saw. It is about adding control, consistency, and cleaner results where the factory miter gauge usually comes up short.
Common Questions
