easy to make center finder using scrap wood

[@ronjones9373]

The trick for correctly spacing the pencil and pins was genius. I used it immediately. Thanks

[@terrydouglas2777]

Nice marking tool. If you plan to use it on 4x4 lumber, make sure you space the pins apart for the tool to go over the 4x4 to mark a center line. Im going to make me one of these, but picking out the proper hard dark wood around where I live is going to be a challenge. I always told my kids, if you make anything, be sure you use the best material that you can get so it will last generations an can passed down to your grandchildren. An be sure you add the date and your initials on it.

Very beautiful center finder design. Plus as an added bonus, the music made me want to find a dance partner to get up and dance! Thank you so much.

I really like your trick for drill equally on each side of the center line.

[@dodgycrimper]

I love your idea on how to equally space the side guides. I don't have a pillar drill, so what I did was use a scrap piece of wood, drill the centre hole through both the piece and the scrap. Insert the drill bit in the centre hole and drill a smaller diameter hole to one side of the centre hole through the scrap wood and the piece. Rotate the scrap and then through the same hole, drill the last hole on the other side, ensuring that the three holes are aligned.

I love this! It reminds me of a line from Star Trek where he talks about "Thinking of space as moving instead of the ship."

when a shop jig turns in to pure art!

[@MrWayneploof]

Excellent. How easy is it with just a hand drill, a vice, a couple of clamps and a circular saw n hand saw.

Great Video Trevor! I just found your channel and Subscribed! Lovely tool you made. I kinda laughed a little because i also use the same bic mechanical lead pencils for wood work etc!!! Lol the small lead draws nice small fine lines lol. Have a Blessed day!!!

[@1stPrinciples455]

Does anyone know who is the original inventor? Unable to find the info. I know that this was invented by someone long ago

[@orionred2489]

Maybe en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theodorus_of_Samos ?? He gets credit for a lot of tools.

[@banditva8040]

Had to leave. Just couldn't stand the music.
