thanx for the link pat
jonathan creason:
This is another great tool to add to your box. It really helped me tiller out a board bow over the weekend.
Steve Milbocker:
After you initially set the device do you maintain that setting through the entire tillering process?
Pat B:
Steve, the more the limb bends the deeper the piencil has to go through to be able to leave a mark. I will set it shallow to start with, run it down both limbs and remove the pencil marks them reset it a bit deeper and go again. Be sure that both limbs are bending to each setting before resetting it.
Another use I have found is if you slide the gizmo down each side of each limb it will help with correcting twist that came about from uneven wood removal. I don't use Eric's gizmo too much but in tricky tillering I find it to be very useful getting good tiller when my eye won't pick it up.
