I think the easiest way to identify narra is its smell. Smells like rosewood when cut iirc..

Re: improved shop made marking gauge

hmmmm di ko alam smell ng rosewood eh

Well i didnt go to the office today... was having something wrong in the wrongest place of my body 🙂 hence i was able to make the tool..

Re: improved shop made marking gauge

butt screw in. I had to wrap the thread of the screw so it stays firm inside the female thread. Otherwise its too loose and will wiggle itself out. At least with this i need a screw driver to adjust

Coated with linseed too

Re: improved shop made marking gauge

From what I have read, rosewood is known to be such because it produces a rosey odor when being cut.
