    Marking gauge

    Marking gauges consist of two main parts, a fence and a stem. The stem carries a pointed metal spur at the end. The fence
    can be fixed to any position along the stem by a wedge. Marking gauge is an essential tool for basic carpentry and joinery. It is
    used to score a single line parallel to the face side or face edge, when planning a piece of timber to size, and for marking out
    rabates and simple joints. The spur is simply a nail with its head cut off and hammered into the end of the stem.

    4. Spur

    Assemblage instructions
    1. Drill a hole with a bit slightly smaller than the diameter of the nail you will use as the spur. Cut the head off a nail and drive
    it right through the stem.

    2. Assemble the marking gauge by fitting the wedge into its groove and sliding the stem through the fence. If it does not fit check
    that the sides of the mortise are straight, or plane the stem down very carefully.

    Using the Marking gauge

    To use the gauge first set the distance from the spur to the fence. Tighten the fence to the stem by tapping the back of the
    wedge with a piece of wood. Check the setting and make final adjustments by tapping either end of the stemon the bench top.
    To loosen the fence tap the front of the wedge.
