Thread: Congrats to IanW for his latest article in AWR

You're quick off the mark! I haven't got my copy of the mag, yet, but saw the proofs, of course. It started out to be a more general article on the different ways to make gauges, but it morphed into a sort of 'how to' for my current models, & it isn't what I set out to do in the beginning. I wanted to show how I make my gauges, but I make several parts with my metal lathe, & most people don't have access to a metal lathe. So there should have been extra info showing how you could make something similar using off the shelf bits, but it just wouldn't fit in a single article, & some heavy pruning was required to get in what's there. I hope it's turned out to be something useful. If anyone has questions, fire away..

So a marking-gauge-making workshop next...??

Cheers,

Congrats Ian. Well deserved.

Marking gauge workshop
That sounds fun

Congratulations Ian.

Hopefully I'll get to read the new Wood Review tomorrow or Monday ( if it comes on the truck ).

Congratulations Ian, I'll grab a copy, I've been meaning to make some marking gauges.

I got a head start with the digital version - which was released yesterday.
Not sure how long it takes for the paper version to arrive.
The digital versions take up way less space!
