Marking out dovetails for hand cutting goes much easier with these helpers. Held in place while hooked over the end of a board, these markers allow you, with one placement, to pencil a squared line across the end grain and a tail-slope line down the face grain.
To cover a range of dovetail angles, it is easy to produce several markers, each with a unique slope. This helps reduce errors.
