Simple Marking Guage
Rough oak pieces from a cut off branch. Resawn at the time when the branch was cut off and left to dry in the workshop for a couple of years.
Preparing Wood
planed down to size and ready for slicing on the table saw.
PIeces for the Marking Guage
All the pieces are same width and height.
Using the marking bar as template the panel is assembled and glued at a tight fit, where the bar barely can move.
Finished Guage
Inserting the pin for the makring a hole was predrilled and a small nail was driven through, to make the tip.
Filing the tip to a sharp point is recommended!
