This gauge is the first of two ebony gauges that I'm selling at a reduced price as a shop second due to a minor check by the brass insert. It was made three months ago and the check as not widened or lengthened, nor does it affect use. Here's an opportunity to get a deal on a beautiful gauge!
The Honey Brook "No. 197" Marking Gauge is my take on the Stanley No. 197, a vintage marking gauge that featured a circular cutter similar to those on my standard marking gauges. This particular gauge is made in Gabon ebony.
The Honey Brook "No. 197" Marking Gauge features:
-
An elliptical head measuring 1 7/8" tall and 2 1/2" wide
-
Two 1/2" round brass inlays to protect the head from wear over time
-
A 8" beam fitted with a circular cutter and brass screw. The cutter provides a clear and crisp line for all of your layout needs.
After inspection, I hand-stamp each marking gauge with my maker's mark prior to delivery. Upon inspection I discovered a check near the brass insert and, as a result, it's being sold at a discounted price. Despite this, I stand behind every tool that leaves my shop and each comes with a simple unconditional guarantee. If you're not completely satisfied contact me for a replacement or a full refund.
This is a lifetime tool that you'll be happy to pass on to the next generation of makers in your family!
