Magnetic dovetail jig

This is a 1:6 dovetail layout jig and magnetic saw guide that I made out of walnut. I used C.A. glue to set the 6 ceramic magnets and, also, to finish it for a nice protective coating. Before finishing, I engraved the ratio using a Wen rotary tool, and filled in the engraving with yellow wax from a melted crayon to give it some contrast.

Finish: C.A. Glue!!
