Veritas standard wheel marking gauge with plain (ungraduated) rod. A typical marking gauge has two problems: you have to tilt it just right to avoid pin chatter, and even then the pin tends to follow the grain, throwing off your line. The Veritas wheel gauges solve both problems.

The hardened steel wheel cutter scribes perfectly at any point on its circumference. Since it cuts rather than tears the fibres, it marks cleanly, even across the grain. The wheel's single-sided bevel also pulls the face against the stock, maintaining accuracy. Its edge is at the very end of the rod, useful for transferring dimensions such as tenon shoulders and mortise depths. The wheel retracts into the face for storage and protection, and an internal O-ring keeps light but constant friction on the rod, making setting very easy.
The standard gauge is a great workhorse and excellent value. A micro-adjust model with a slightly longer body is also available. The gauge is also available with an imperial or metric graduated rod (metric to 150 mm).
