DW735. Nice! I have the same model. Definitely look at swapping, or at least rotating the blades. I bought this Wixey Digital Gauge and love it. No more guessing at placement of the measuring arrow. Also, it's as loud and as powerful as a jet engine. Make sure you have dust collection and ear protection.

It's a great piece of equipment as-is, but if you ever want a digital depth gauge, check this one out: https://www.amazon.com/Wixey-WR510-Digital-Readout-Fractions/dp/B001PTGBSK. I have one on order for my Dewalt 735 planer. The built-in gauge works fine, but I figured this was a little easier to read (quickly, and more accurate than a ruler-type reading), and it's not overly expensive. Enjoy your new toy, it will provide you with some great results.
Yea. Let's assume I've squared my machine and trust that the blade and the fence are parallel. I just want to find a way to accurately get the width of the cut. I got this for my planer and it's brilliant. I was hoping for something like this, or a technique that's used for nice, accurate cuts other than try, try again, and hope you don't overdo it.
