Veritas Dovetail Saddle Markers

This dovetail marker's body is anodized aluminum, chosen to keep the tool lightweight while resisting marking the workpiece during use.

The 1:6 angle suits softwood, the 1:8 angle suits hardwood, and the 14° angle approximates a 1:4 ratio for thinner stock where a shallower dovetail angle works better, so the right choice depends mainly on your wood species and stock thickness.

Yes, the design is made to carry a continuous line around corners, so you don't need to reposition and restart the layout line partway through.

Yes, the 1:6 and 1:8 markers are available together as a pair, while the 14° marker is available on its own.
