Marking Gauge
Here is a little project that I did recently. It’s marking gauge used for marking cut lines for dove tails and tenons. I made it from poplar. It’s based on the Hamilton marking gauge.
Marking gauge, poplar and steel
The blade is made from an old corner bracket that I had laying around.
Wow, Dad. That’s really cool.
Hi nice theme.Impressive.Is it free?I gotta update my theme sometime.
Yes, the theme is free. It’s called Black-Letterhead. I made a few adjustments to font sizes and colors, but very minor. Thanks for visiting.
I used to build boats many years ago. I worked for a guy named Ralph Stanley in Southwest Harbor, Maine. We built Maine lobster boats and Friendship Sloops.
I like this site, very well organized, with good content. I’ll definitely check back in…Thanks
This is a terrific write-up. I will have to add you to my RSS list.
Outstanding!
Any desire to take on boat building again?
I’ve thought about it lots and lots. I would like build something along the lines of a St. Lawrence Skiff. Someday.
