Marking Gauges

An original design by Florip Toolworks. Your cut is only as accurate as your layout line. NOTE: DUE TO HIGH SAW ORDER VOLUME, I AM NOT OFFERING MARKING GAUGES AT THIS TIME.

The Little One

Specs

• Flat on the fence allows the user to strike a line on material 1/8” thick while it is supported on a work surface. Also prevents rolling.
• Shaft length is 5 1/2”
• 1/2” O-1 cutter
• 1.5” wide fence
• Fence is counterbored to allow full retraction of the cutter.
• Shaft material is full hard phosphor bronze….it’s good stuff.

“The Big One”

I designed and built this gauge because I wasn’t happy with the generic wheel marking gauge I had been using. My main complaints were:

• Small fence - Would allow the gauge to pivot as I marked my work.
• Round fence - Allowed the gauge to roll off the workbench.
• Poor fit - The cutter would come loose from the shaft and the fence had a sloppy fit.
• Overall feel - I wasn’t confident in the tools ability to put down consistent layout lines.

Below is a list of features that make up the Florip Toolworks gauge.

• Micro adjust with 5/8” travel.
• 2” wide fence to provide a solid footprint on your workpiece.
• Hexagonal fence to prevent the gauge from rolling off the bench.
• With just under 9” of length, this marking gauge will tackle most of your layout needs.
• Easy to sharpen O1 tool steel cutter.
• Stainless shaft.
• It’s often called “beefy”.
