VERITAS - Dual trunnion mortice & marking gauge. Use standard Veritas hard steel wheels which resist grain following
185mm overall
Hardened steel wheel cutters
Aluminum housing with brass face and stainless-steel rods
Internal O-ring keeps light but constant friction on each rod
Wheels can be oriented with opposing bevels
Set projections up to 145mm, thumbscrew locks settings
One rod has cutting edge at extreme end of rod for transferring dimensions
Cutters retract into brass face for storage or for using one cutter at a time
Eccentric placement of rods ensures large reference face, helps gauge resist rolling on surface
Optional shaft clamp is designed to fit onto gauge's guide rods; lets you lock relative position of cutters while still being able to freely adjust fence for offset - see HERE
Machined to precise tolerances to prevent binding on rods, the 1/2" long collar is made from extruded aluminum with a turned brass thumbscrew that tightens onto marking gauge's steel guide rods without marring their surfaces
