A simple marking gauge for woodworking made from some scrap piece of acacia wood from floor boards that I reused/upcycled.

This is inspired by the japanese woodworking marking gauge kebiki that I have no experience of. But I saw some fellows making this type, and I like the mechanism.

A wooden key piece is pushed into an angle, to cause friction and lock the beam in place. This is a very simple construction. I made mine in a rounded shape. It fits the two finger grip.

I can flip the key piece to suite left or right hand grip. The metal that is used to scrape/mark the wood is a small brass nail that is filed flat.

I made the initial hole a bit big (as you can see in the middle of the video). So I had to put in a piece of white oak (from a pallet actually). So, yes - even this project has some pallet wood in it. Cant help myself!
