Friends: 

Here are the plans from the recent Marking Gauge Build. I think these are my best yet, but I'll let you be the judge. 

I hope little giveaways like this underscore just how grateful I am to my Patrons.

I like this design only change I think I will make is a square mortice with square stock. That way I only need a dowel for the "button".

Gabriel Rodriguez

That's a really ingenious design! Thank you for the awesome content Rex :)

Bill Smithem

Nice design. Most elegant solution I've seen yet.

Peter A Merritt

Rustic bench complete, Low bench mostly complete and using it, Tool tote coming together. Squares are cut. I feel like the slow kid always running behind the cool kids trying to catch up. Great video.

Benjamin W Flint

Elegant is the right word for this design. Now I need to figure out how to turn it into a functioning mortise gauge. Anyone have any good ideas?

Rex Krueger

Sure, just put in two pins sized for your most common mortise chisel. Most people only cut one or two mortise sizes, so they can get by with one or two non-adjustable mortise gauges. It's a thought.

I don't think you're slow at all. Most people aren't doing every project. It's impressive that you're following so closely.

Hey Rex, I just wanted to say that I love your content, and you're complete honesty and transparency with your viewers. I just got finished making a walnut and poplar marking gauge for my grandfather, and I chock up my success to your videos. Keep up the good work Rex!

Todd Fox

Finally built one this weekend with an X-acto blade for a slitting gauge. I don't think I'll ever go back. Brilliant work!

Won't let me download or open these instructions

Rex Krueger

Hm, the open fine on my end. If you still can't get them to open, just email me at rexkrueger@gmail.com and I'll send you a copy.

It's the app that's acting up. After I messaged you last night I thought about it trying the website and it worked
