Mini lathe/mill project No.5 Joinery marking gauge

Dear members,

This project is similar to the last, but greatly simplified, and is more for use with joinery.

No doubt you already have a timber one in your tool box, but I'll bet it's beginning to split.

This one will last for ever, and can be knocked up in a few hours.

The polished brass and steel make a good visual combination.

Manufacture is straight forward, except if you opt for the grooves around the body. For this, you will need access to a dividing head.

My Unimat 3 mini lathe/mill, comes with one, so I was lucky.

Attached is a drawing, and a couple of pics.

Ken
