Everyone has nice marking gauges, I wanted one also:crybaby2:
Told my wife and she said,I would have to make one if I wanted one:-(
then I said I needed some rosewood for it,not this time $$$$$$
So I tried making one out of purple heart, the beam is a Japanese wood (dont ask what kind) straight, hard, light color, the blade holder is an oak dowel split with a slight taper, the locking rod is oak dowel with a tapered flat and a scalple blade.
shallec and wax
