Rob Cosman's Marking Gauge

Product Description

What Rob says

The second most important tool in cutting dovetails is your marking gauge. The gauge line becomes part of the finished joint. Here is why I think my marking gauge will help you cut better dovetails:

• The blade comes to you sharpened; designed to sever the wood fibres not crush them, leaving a crisp gauge line.
• The blade is fixed in use but can be rotated to a sharper area when it gets dull.  You can do this several times before having to resharpen.
• Has a flat section on the brass head preventing the gauge from rolling off of your bench.
• The face of the head is dead flat, making for precise work.
• Has a large knurled locking knob that is easy to tighten.
• Comes standard with the 1/2'' diameter cutter head.  
• Extra cutter heads available in 3/8'', 7/16'', and 5/8'' diameters.
• The handle is crafted form the same Ebony Swanstone composite material as our saw handles.
