A ruler marking gauge/ruler stopper is an essential woodworking tool every workshop should have. It is easy to make using ordinary tools around the shop. You will need only a few things to build this DIY tool yourself - discarded wood, a threaded insert, and a wing nut. Watch the entire video for a step-by-step guide on how to make a ruler marking gauge.
I started out by cutting 2 rectangles from scrap wood that form the basis for the ruler marking tool. Sanded in a dado (groove) on one piece to fit the ruler in using a homemade sanding jig and sanded a tighter one on the other piece for the acrylic glass that presses against and fixes the ruler in place. I fixed the acrylic glass to the wood piece using epoxy resin. Drilled a hole in, used a threaded insert, and screwed in a wing nut.

I cannot stop watching this genius at work, I would like to be able to make some of what he does.
Thank you so much :)
Omg, he routed a dado groove with sandpaper and a ruler! Amazing.
Hi Junaidi, thank you. ;) And works really well.. :D
Did a rough build with what I had on hand and it turned out pretty good. Once I can safely go to a hardware store again to get the screw insert and a better wing nut screw I’ll give it another go. Attaching the sandpaper to the ruler blew my mind, great idea!
Thank you, really appreciate it! 👍 Let me know how it turns out for you, I'm curious. The sandpaper jig works amazingly well.
Очень интересная идея! Обязательно постараюсь повторить!
There was me thinking I would have to router the grooves. Brilliant use of sticking down the sandpaper. I think I will use your knob making jig instead of a wing nut. Very well produced videos.
Thank you Billy, much appreciated :)
This is the best idea I ever learned at RUclips. I like it, thank you.
Glad you like it! Thank you :)
Formidable, facile à comprendre pour le faire, Thank you
Thank you too Liliane. Glad you liked the video and found it useful. 👍
Genial, trataré de hacerme unas cuantas, Gracias por el aporte. Un abrazo desde Lima Perú.
Hola, muchas gracias. Me alegro que le guste. Espero que le salga bien. Abrazos
Chanceless sir
This is very simple design. I like it. I will try soon!
Thank you. much appreciated :)
FELICITACIONES!!
Muchas gracias Javier. 👍
Muito bom o projeto... agradeço sua ajuda!
Muchas gracias Eloir, apreciado.
So simple but so useful in every workshop. I like how you paid attention to the details. Thanks for sharing Lukas 👍
Thank you, Boris, much appreciated. The Gauge is great. I am using it for almost every project. Currently I am designing a new one, looking forward to it. Thanks! 😉
Excellent tool for beginers,the only missing info is size of the wing nut &
wood insets.Never seen such a clear info in description box..Thanks once again..
Great build! Ingenious sanding the groove using the ruler!
Hi Thom, thank you, I appreciate it. Sanding the groove this way works really well.
Crazee nice
Thank you Cheppy! 👍
Thanks for a nice and interesting video.👍👍
I thank you too. 👌
@@AllFlavorWorkshop You're welcome. Take care.
I didn’t see you check anything for square but it seemed pretty square. How did you do that? Did you check and just not show it on video?
Hello Alivia, yes, I did it off camera. I checked with a machinist square and made sure the sanding jig rails are perfectly parallel to each other.
Muy buenos para que la gente aprenda ha trAbajar la madera Ok
Gracias Nibaldo, verdad
Very good and simple idea. How do you cut the acrylic glass? (I have never worked with it.)
Hello Tommy, this was actually a thin piece of acrylic. So I used scissors and sanded the edges afterwards. If it was thicker, then probably a circular saw or a trim router.
@@AllFlavorWorkshop Thank you :-)
👍👍👍
Thank you!
Poderia sem bem mais simples
The piece of acrylic was put in so you don’t mark up the ruler?
Hi Scott, pretty much yes. I was looking for something flexible that would not damage the ruler. And it presses down the ruler quite nicely. 👍
@@AllFlavorWorkshop thanks!
No entiendo...si la tuerca o tornillo lo pones a ras...como y donde entra la mariposa para ajustar la regla y como ajusta la regla
Really like the yellow ruler. What is the brand and the source of purchase?
Hello friend 🙏🤝🇮🇩🇮🇩
購入したいです。
❤🙏
The screw with the wing nut ?
Hi John, you can either get it at the store or you can make one by gluing a wing nut to a threaded rod.
Where did you purchase your yellow ruler.
I bought the yellow ruler at my local store. Let me take a look if there's one online too. ;)
This design is one of the simplest and most widespread, but it has several problems. First, the expansion, contraction, and moisture of the wood can cause the ruler to bind or become excessively loose. On the other hand, the wood wears quickly against the metal, especially in contact with the edges of the rule. And finally, using a soft wood will make the previous points even more critical.
This problem has already been demonstrated in some videos. The best thing is that the rule slides on a totally metallic piece.
I would also recommend that the tool be disassembled so that the inner foil can be replaced if it breaks, which I think should also be metal.
Thank you for the suggestions. 👍 Great tips.
