This is a jig that compensates for the blade kerf when performing waste side cuts with a track saw. You insert it between the you're measuring device and the rubber blade guard on the track. This is not my idea, but this is my design.
I have provided STL for 1.6, 1.8, 2.0, 2.2, 2.4 and 2.5mm kerf. If you need other values, the Fusion 360 CAD source is provided.
After printing, I recommend that you take a pair of calipers and measure the width of the vertical fin at several points - especially the ends. Depending on how dialed in your printer is, you may find some surface imperfections that cause the fin to be slightly wider than designed. If so, a few swipes with a piece of sandpaper or a file should clean that up and bring it down to the desired width.
