Tools and Hardware Reviews of Shop Fox D2822 Wheel Marking Gauge
Customer Review: A good tool, but not a great tool
Summary: 3 Stars
I have used this tool to mark cut lines for mortise and tenon joints, dovetail joints and guidelines for bracket/drawer slide mounting. It takes a little practice to hold the tool firmly in a consistent manner so that the lines are scribed consistently. I expect that any tool of this general design will have this issue.
This is a useful marking tool, easy to set and makes nice clean marks.
It might be nice to have measurements built into this tool rather than having to set the distance against a ruler, but it is very easy to set relative to an existing mark whose distance you want to duplicate.
The set screw does need to be firmly tighted and checked periodically to make sure that your distance setting has not changed during use.
I have found the need to frequently check that the screw securing the cutting blade is tight. Once loose, the scribe marks are not accurate as the blade can wobble quite a bit with only a little play under the screw head.
On some of the more expensive marking guages I notice a recess in the guide wheel into which the cutter can be positioned for storage, but that is not a feature of this tool. That seems like a good idea, but the lack of this feature has not caused me any problems.
Description of Shop Fox D2822 Wheel Marking Gauge
This simple, yet effective Marking Gauge has a single bevel edge wheel that scribes a fine line without tearing the wood fibers and does not wander with the woods grain. Precision ground brass shoe glides against the edge of the workpiece and the knurled brass knob makes adjustments quick and easy.Marking Tools
