A good mark is a difficult process to achieve on your stock. If you’re going to add dowels into the end of a piece of wood, for example, who wants to measure the center of both sides and then draw a line? With this marking gauge, you set it to the width you’re looking for and use the base as your straight edge to add the mark. This is simplistic and can be made for less than 5 dollars from items that are in your local hardware store.
I really think this tool should be in everyone’s shop…it’s just so each to use and absolutely accurate as it can be. The entire build is below, which I recommend watching first.
My earlier version of this useful tool is → here ←.
