Ruler depth stop with indicator lens

This is a depth stop for rulers that are 25 mm wide with an indicator lens that has a 6x magnification. You can buy the lens here:

In essence this design is a reinterpretation of a regular or Shinwa depth stop for rulers with the added precision of a professional flip stop commonly found in formatting table saws made by Felder, Hammer etc.

With this depth stop it is easy to set distances down to 0.25 mm

You will have to use supports for this print.

This design is only a proof of concept with room for improvement. Let me know in the comments if you would like to see some changes in the next iteration.

Thank you!
