This was inspired by "PL", who made a nice bevel gauge. But it got me wondering if it were possible to make one that did not require any additional metal screws. So this is not so much a remix as a complete new design. I am very happy with the way this turned out - even better than I hoped. I am confident this will perform as well as any "store bought" bevel gauge.

Note : I made the blade a bit wider than is typical for a bevel gauge, in order to accommodate the relatively large screw diameter, as well as to give the blade extra strength.

Print instructions

Print in PLA using the 3mf files provided; otherwise :

Screw : Print threaded end up with supports (see photos).

perimeters = 4
infill 15% rectilinear
top/bottom fill pattern = concentric
set Z distance for detachable supports

Blade :

infill 100%
perimeters = 2
top/bottom fill pattern = rectilinear

Body : Print on the side, no supports required. Note the slot is longer on one side than on the other; print with short-slot side down.

infill 10% rectilinear
perimeters = 3
top/bottom fill pattern = rectilinear

To assemble insert the blade in the slot so that the angle on the blade matches the internal angle on the body slot. Insert the screw into the "thin" side of the body - tighten slightly (do not over-tighten!) to hold the blade firmly.
