I made one just for kicks and it works...just a cheap and quick way to put in a mortise slot that will come out on dead center ever time " don't measure people " I think I heard that somewhere

from the rubber ruler guy I think...

BJ that's an awesome idea. You are the idea man for sure. You do it simple but very effectively. I'll take this one to the bank....and just when I've finished doing one plate too....time for another one it seems.....it never ends but that's what I love about it.

Thanks Ed

I made one like the one below and this one is alot easyer to make and at 1/10th the price...I had some stainless pins in the junk bolt box that worked out just right...but just about anything will work for the pins ,it just needs a lip (shoulder) on it...Some Allen Shoulder bolts would work just fine for this job that any one can pickup from ACE hardware for 30 cents. ea. and then just cut off the head and grind some of the threads off so it's flush on the back side of the plate..( 1/4" x 1" Allen shoulder bolts with 10-24 threads) will do the trick just fine.
