Q: Will these fit a marking gauge that isn't from Veritas?
Yes, these marking/mortise gauge heads retrofit any marking gauge with a 5/16" diameter shaft (but are not compatible with the micro-adjust gauge 05N3631).
15N0101 - Marking/Mortise Gauge Heads
Though designed for use with our Veritas wheel marking gauges,* these gauge heads are a simple retrofit for any marking gauge with a 5/16" diameter shaft.
Made from carbon steel, the 5/8" diameter wheel cutters will scribe at any point in their circumference and slice rather than tear fibers for clean, accurate cuts. The single-bevel cutters are usable in-line for marking parallel lines, or with bevels facing for sure mortise sizing and chisel registration. Secured with integral set screws, the blades can be set as close as 3/8" apart. The included shaft collar registers against the marking gauge fence to ensure the shaft remains parallel to the workpiece, preventing accidental tilting of the cutters in use; this is especially useful when scribing large offsets from the fence.
Supplied as a pair of cutters with a shaft collar, hex key and instructions. Made in Canada.
*Not compatible with the micro-adjust wheel marking gauge 05N3631
Yes, these marking/mortise gauge heads retrofit any marking gauge with a 5/16" diameter shaft (but are not compatible with the micro-adjust gauge 05N3631).
Integral set screws let the pair of cutters sit as close as 3/8" apart, useful for narrow mortise layouts.
In-line, the single-bevel cutters scribe parallel marking lines; turned bevels-facing, they give sure mortise sizing and chisel registration, so the orientation should match the layout being marked.
The set includes a pair of cutters, a shaft collar, a hex key and instructions for setup.
