Designed by a committee of woodworkers ranging from novice to neophyte, this system exemplifies the pinnacle of collaboration. Comprised of an innovative marking gauge and a suite of accessories, it provides handy aids for both setting your gauge and striking lines.
The eccentric placement of the rod through the brass face and aluminum body ensures a large reference surface for square registration. The short side can also be used when space is restricted. As an added advantage, the eccentric face makes this gauge less likely to roll off the work surface. The generously sized locking knob provides ample grip for over tightening.
The "top-hat" cutter design is larger and more robust. It has been hardened to Rc 87-90, giving it the ability to slice through pin nails unscathed. Made from sintered tool steel, a PM alloy, it never needs sharpening.
The revolutionary new feature is the two brass shoes that give the gauge unprecedented set-up expediency. Simply pinch your stock or a tool between the shoes and instantly the cutter projection is set to match. This groundbreaking feature bridges the chasm between the worlds of measured and referential woodworking.
