Thanks for sharing. Plan on making all of those for my shop. I think the circle finder is the best of the four but like all of them.

Hey guys, thanks for all the nice comments. I just like to share the things that make woodworking more fun for me with all of you. It is great to see that some of you will make them. You will not be disappointed. I used to get take my chuck and scroll it down to the smallest opening just to see if a small tenon was not too small to fit in . Then I got thinking about a go no-go gauge to determine that for me. I have one in my kit that I take to Arizona, too.

You made my day!!!!!!!!!!!!!....................Jim
