On the stop side, I have added a couple of steel stops, with a rounded face, it gives a clear "clap" when you reach the desired depth, and you don't have it if the wood is too thick.
This knob is a lock nut that stops the point in position. The brass part goes through the ebony and is tapped. It is pinned in the wood.
And here you see the reason for the thickness gauge I presented yesterday.
An example of the marks it leaves on the wood.
Voilą,
Christophe
