This antique mortise marking gauge is a traditional woodworking layout tool used to accurately mark parallel lines for mortise-and-tenon joinery and other precision layout tasks. Featuring an adjustable fence and dual marking pins, mortise gauges allow woodworkers to consistently scribe the width and location of mortises, ensuring accurate joinery before cutting.
For centuries, mortise marking gauges have been an essential tool for carpenters, cabinetmakers, furniture makers, and joiners. Their simple yet effective design provides repeatable accuracy for fine woodworking projects. Today, antique marking gauges are valued by collectors and traditional woodworkers for their craftsmanship, functionality, and historical significance.
Overall in decent shape with expected wear. No markings. The marking spike is worn and short.
