Mortise Marking Gauge

[randy618]

Hi Everyone!

Does anyone know where I can buy a mortise gauge? The Veritas wheel marking gauge (or something similar in design) is what I'm looking for.

Admin, please forgive my ignorance should this thread be in the wrong forum. I wasn't sure whether to place this in "Woodworking Forum" or "Tools." 8)

are you looking for something like this?

one of the marking pin can be finely tuned by the knob at the back portion...

very well built and uses brass and ebony...

I got it from Hong Kong, but if you need it badly I can probably let it go for a reasonable price...

That's a great looking Mortise Marking Gauge. Looks better than most of the ones sold at amazon.com.

What's the actual length? Looks large in the pics.

it is Jay, really well built and fits the hand quite well. measures 8" with the knob fully close.

Man, that's a beautiful piece, Sir Timber! How much do you want for it?
