    Default Hand made tool set

    I’m hoping this sparks some interest and get peoples creative juices flowing. My aim will be to make a 3 piece set marking guage, awl and workshop pencil. And when boxed it will cover several avenues and I can post in both of those.

    All out of this slab of Gidgee. 320 x 190 x 55

    Which marking tools will the set consist of?

    This touches on what each person considers important.

    I haven’t decided on whether to do a Paul Sellers version or add some brass and thumb screws.

    Sorry, I missed that in your original post.

    Consider this as a marking gauge ...
