Kerfmaker guage with sliding dovetail .

Great looking pair, and they almost match.

Karson. I made the second one a bit bigger so it would fit with the bar on my osborene guage and my miter table.
The first one was like everyone else made and I found it too small to get a decent measure.

Fancy! Everyone is going to have one of these at this pace.

If you guys want fancy, the knuled nut is $1.25 at Home Depot. <vbg>
Here’s the other fancies. (Veritas Brass insert knobs)

Bruce this gadget sets the width of a slot (kerf) in a piece of wood identcle to the piece that will eventually be fitted in to it.
It saves “sneaking” up on the slot with a series of cuts.

If you have a series of slots to make each should be exactly the same width as the first one.

Thanks for the info guys, after following the links from ChuckM I now know what we use this for. This would be a really handy jig. As soon as I finish the crib I’m working on I’ll make one and post the results.
Thanks again
