This is the marking gauge I made for 489tad, It is made from Tzalam and Granadillo (Red Cocobolo) with a 1/4" Brass inlaid in to the rail. Seeing all the gauges made for the swap is really Awe inspiring.. Great work guys, it has truly been a humbling, fun and educational experience!. 2013...

As the title of the post suggests, the latest swap was screwdrivers and marking tools. Since I don't have a lathe to make handles for the obvious entries, I decided to make a trifold bit index that I came across in the Woodsmith plans. It holds both drill bits and the various driver bits. It...

First I have to give Devin T credit for the first two pictures great work!!. And yes for this 2022 Screwdriver Marking Tool Swap my package went to Devin T a multi-talented maker. As this was a Screwdriver swap first, the initial piece was screwdriver with a ratcheting drive. It was a bit tight...

These are some pics of the gauge I sent to Waho6o9. I made it from padauk and brass. I think it turned out pretty well, although I wasn't very happy with the length of the blade, and I screwed up cutting the mortise and had to make a small patch for it. He seems to like it though so it was all...

I am in the process of making three marking gauges. I started off just making two, one for a pencil and the other for a blade. When I cut up the stock I was left with the exact amounts for 3 bodies and 3 beams. It must of been the big woodworker in the sky working in my favour because the...

Marking 3 sides of a piece of stock is a error-ridden, clumsy, tedious task. Especially if you have a large number of lines to lay out. Commercial straddle squares capable of marking 3 faces without moving the square are expensive. So, I made one at $77.49 off retail. Materials: One 2 1/2"...

This is a project I completed a couple of years ago about the time I did my "scrap box". It too is made using scrap hickory. Not a lot special about it except the little piece of hard tubing I use to hold the edge guide in place when I turn the holding screw. I did this so I wouldn't scar up...

My 2cd attempt at this little fun shopmade "center line marking gauge" started with a rare find down in the shop recently (Some SPARE TIME :) And along with some motivation from a fellow LJer who's kind actions resulted in a prototype exchange of sorts, which in return prompted this 2cd...

To change things up a bit from making projects, I made a couple of tools. A cutting gauge and a mortising gauge. I used hickory and bloodwood hardwood scraps for both items. 1/4" square brass rod and 1/8" round rod for the brass parts. The blade on the cutting gauge is just a little scrap of...

When I made the marking set for terryR in the Layout & Marking Tool Swap we just wrapped up, I knew I was going to make another set for myself using some Cocobolo I had squirreled away just for that purpose. So, I ground myself a knife blade, scratch awl and birdcage awl when I made his. The...
