Mortising

Very cool idea! Nice set of chisels!

That’s a great idea! A different marking gauge preset for each chisel. Did you have to use the spokeshave because you don’t have a lathe?

That is a nice idea. Now you have a good looking set of marking gauges to go along with a good looking set of chisels. Sounds like a winning combination to me.

Thanks for the post.

-- With God's help all things are possible- even woodworking. Woodworking is not just a hobby, it is an (expletive deleted) expensive hobby.

Great idea and functional tool set. Obviously you love a nice presentation as much as you love accuracy in your tooling. I see a H.O. Studley type tool case in your future.

Owen, actually, they are oval not round. I thought about round but figured round wouldn’t give me the tight lockup and quick release I was looking for. I do have a lathe, but man am I ever a hard-catch newbie on that!

Douglas: yeah, I do lust after that H.O. Studley case. My wife never says it, but I KNOW she thinks “why doesn’t he quit building cabinets for tools and build me a vanity!”

That is awesome.
