For example, one set has 1/8", 5/32", 3/16", 1/4", 5/16", 3/8", 1/2", 1/16" x 3/4", and 3/32" by 1". Notice a few of the bars aren't square to get you a few more sizes. I've also seen sets of 5 with 2 sizes to a bar, but I think the square ones are easier to use, and make harder to screw up the measurement. Sean, there are other sets of bars available.

Sean- the 3/8" bar is a pretty common one for a lot of guys- 1/2 of 3/4" in ply or 1x stock makes a strong simple locking joint. These are a huge time saver for repeatability in the woodshop.
