Antique Primitive Wooden Marking Gauge Woodworking Scribe Tool All Wood

Antique Primitive Wooden Marking Gauge - All-Wood Scribe Tool A Piece of Woodworking History This authentic primitive marking gauge is a beautiful example of early American or European craftsmanship. Used by carpenters and cabinetmakers to scribe precise, parallel lines along a workpiece, this tool is as much a work of art as it is a functional instrument. Hand-crafted from a dense, durable hardwood (likely Beech or Oak). Features a rare wooden thumb screw for locking the fence, rather than the more common brass or steel hardware found on later models. The fence slides smoothly along the stem and locks securely. Includes the original metal marking pin at the end of the beam for clean, accurate scribing.
