The problem with many CZcams videos is even though the information is great the videos are boring because they are too slow. I can get bored in less than 2 minutes. The reason why John and Matthias's videos are so awesome is they are never boring. No matter how long the video, you keep things moving at the right pace so I stay engaged and never bored.
Thanks! Much appreciated
John Heisz I wasn't bored at all. It's different for everyone.
Best instruction ever. I don't have to listen to 45 min. about aunt Bessie's dog while trying to sort the 3 min. of actual instruction. Thank you very much.
SUPER! I really loved the cabinet behind you with the drill bits! Keep it up
Without doubt the easiest and most practical DIY marking gauge out there. Thanks John.
Your dowel cutter is awesome! Never would have thought to do that.
Probably the best project about the marking gouge so far. Very easy and very effective
I think this is the best marking gauge design by far. It is simple to make especially if you buy a dowel and the washer makes it work like the very-tas expensive ones. Thank you for sharing, I will try to make one for sure.
Very well done. I have searched for and found oodles of videos on how to make a marking gauge. Yours is by far the best. Simplicity in its purest form and works. No fancy brass or high dollar Bolivian mahogany or whatever. Good job!
Love it John. Short and and to the point. Don't know why it takes some guys 10 or 20 minutes to go through a simple project. Thumbs up. Thanks.
Very good nice
Perfect from start to finish. Especially enjoyed the dowel cutter. thanks again John.
Thanks Dave!
I have been watching a bunch of videos about the same project but yours is the best, simple, well explained and really easy to do. Thanks for sharing.
Beautifully simple design; much easier than others I've seen. Thanks
John, I love how you redo these projects, now with live images. Your videos are so efficient, straight forward and easy to follow. Keep up the good work
Just a heads up: from now on I'm deleting comments that have the reply disabled. It's annoying as hell not being able to reply to a comment on my own video. If you want to comment and have your comment answered or not be deleted, fix your G+ settings.
Excellent IDEA!
LOL.. Isn't it though?
I have been looking at different designs of marking gauges and yours is the most practical and easiest. It would be even faster just to buy the dowel. Great video!
This is fantastic. Love the dowel maker and your way to sharpen the washer. Good quality stuff here.
This is actually quite amazing! Loved the ingenuity of the methods! Congratulations!
This guy is a clever dude. Ingenuity my friend
I love the unique look of this project. It's got style!
Simple ,,thanks,, is not enaugh, you are a god men to share all these things, very clear and instructive. Grettings from Roumania.
Nice, Streamlined and simplistic as usual John Nice work!
fast and efficient instructions - that's rare!
Your solutions are simply brilliant! I'm definitely going to do this project! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks John! I was wondering where I saw that sharpened washer trick before and then realized it was from your written plans, LOL. I gotta get back in the shop soon!!
Great video John, I think this is one of my favorites because you use a lot of really original ideas and techniques here.
John, Must admit you make it look too easy, Thanks for Sharing !
Great video John really enjoying the homemade tools
As always your videos are informative and watchable - Thanks John.
Cool and easy dowel cutter john. Great vid two. We'll done

I love your stuff-especially the dowel cutter.
Keep up the good work
This is a nice tool.Well done.
Very nice and very well explained.
Without the waste of time that most of others do.
Thanks.
Really easy looking project nicely done
Wonderful video John. You provided a 2 for 1 today: Marking gauge & Dowel Maker. Very cool trick with the washer turned cutting wheel. Your gauge is certainly as effective as the ones from Veritas, and much less exspensive. You just added another tool project to my summer shop work. Thanks! :-)
I just made one, John!! Thanks, Took me all of about an hour, but I had trouble with my scroll saw and being slow as I am. But hey, when the epoxy dries I will give it a try, Looks really good so far. Thanks so much for all you do!
John i tuoi videi con i tuoi lavori sono sempre molto belli.
Thanks John..You make learning enjoyable and straight to the point..Thanks Again
Nice little project, thanks for sharing.
Thanks john I have picked up alot from watching yours an few others need to buy a few more tools then I hope to make some saw dust with you guys thanks again
So glad that you made this...THANK YOU!
I'm honestly speechless so simple but so effective I'll definitely have a go at making this
To the point, thank you john. I love your job.
thanks for being a genius, John. And thanks for sharing your genius-ness with us! Can't wait to give this a shot!
Great vid John, been wanting a gauge like this for a while , I like your design, the shop bought ones are expensive , nice design as can re sharpen .thankyou Will

Impressively simple design :)
That nice and Simply, I Love it.
Amazing!
It's what I was looking for!
Thanks
Thanks John! i like all yours videos
Love the dowel maker
Made one today. I'm sure I'll get lots of use out of it.
Thanks
john very good, I just made one, thank you very much for the idea and the video.
I love the photos that you take your work, mounting the scene, lighting, etc, very good job in this aspect too. Great photograph!
Thanks and regards.
Very instructive as all your videos. I'll make one in a few days.
Thanks John.
Muy instructivo como todos tus vídeos. Me haré uno en unos días.
Gracias John.
Thank you John, I'll make one tomorrw.
Nice work on the videos. Great to watch and reminds one what we can do.
Thanks man. simple & perfect. I respect simple solutions.
Hi John, I have a similar belt sander setup but the cheap B&D sander is held perpendicular to a base. I find it handy to have that extra reference to square and makes the B&D perform like a higher precision unit.
Great way to make a dowel. Never had seen that before. Your video is very good, no music, no double speed playback.You could have cut out a little less so the video would be longer. But that is just for entertainment to give longer pleasure watching this. You show all steps in sufficient detail. Didn't you want to harden the washer after putting the edge on?
I need to make one of these! I like your version very much! Adding to my to do list! :) Thanks for sharing!
Thanks!
I liked the marking gouge a lot, but even more so I enjoyed editing style. I usually find almost all the videos on youtube too slow, as if its intended for kids (im talking about woodworking videos). Yours on the other hand show every step but 5 times quicker. Subscribed
Just a thought ! You could use the wheel of an old tin opener or even an old glass cutting wheel They are a lot harder than a sharpened washer and will last longer!
Parabéns John muito bom.
Excelente trabalho! Obrigado por compartilhar mais este projeto!
Very clever so many thanks.
Excelente vídeo meu amigo! Parabéns e, muito obrigado.
Nice one john!
Realy nice idea. Must make one :)
Thanks. I will make this project tomorrow.
Thanks for the perfect idea. I was planning to make my own but haven't decided yet what kind of marking gauge I'll do. Now I have decided to do this one. Keep up the good work Sir. :(
Nice job!
Really cool. I'm guessing it'll be perfect for scoring drywall, too.
Your sharpened washer reminds me of the blades on a tube cutter. I wonder if you could use a replacement tube cutter blade instead of the washer.
Veri good.Thanks for your videos
Nice work. Thanks.
tem diversos vídeos de construção desta ferramenta, mas você inovou e simplificou muito bem, parabéns...
great idea ., i'm in the market for one , i thought i'd check out youtube before, thinking of buying one . now i'll make one , thanks for the vid .
nice and simple which is good... I have four of the darn things so don't need another, but if I did I would use your design
Great video.
Thanks! now I gotta make one of these!!
Das ist ein schönes und nützliches Gerät. Darum werde ich es mir nachbauen. Viele Grüße aus Köln. Super Video!
Very slick.
Всё гениальное просто!!!!!!!!!!! Сделаю себе такой.
Very good! Thank you!
Fantastic!
Nice work
Nice one!!!
that dowl maker blew my mind, so thats how they are made lol
Very good. Thanks for your brillant videos.
What I would suggest when applying the oil coatings is to do it with a small brush first.
Then let it soak in for ten to fifteen minutes and then wipe off the excess.
The way I often see it being done is pouring the oil onto the surface and wipe it immediately with a cloth. Or even worse: pouring the oil onto the cloth first and then onto the wood.
This is quite wasteful, because what one´s doing is mainly to fill the cloth with oil.
Lasse Samström On the contrary, I've found the brushing it on and wiping it off wastes more. I use the same rag for several coats (sealed in a bag, and no it doesn't burst into flames), never adding any more to the rag. The oil doesn't actually soak into the wood very far, so just wiping it on is enough.
schooled :P
great master of wood
Gracias, ya fabriqué el mio y lo utilizo mucho.
Yes, I enjoyed it! :)
Excellent tutorial. i need a coulpe of those and i will build them.
How about using a slightly larger dowel, chiseling a recess on it and sticking in an adhesive ruler?
