Guess what I made and spelt incorrectly...

Ignoring Faye's poor spelling it is great for its job. Sometimes you can tell at a glance but it's been nice to have just to check the borderline slates.

Lucky she doesn't teach kids how to spell! 

 

For a minute I thought you'd got the letters wrong on that clay brick.

So only those that fit in the middle slot are acceptable? If so why do you need three slots OR are you sorting them into three thicknesses and rejecting everything else in which case you need three? The go / no gauges (guages) I have ever used only had two slots / ends, what have I missed, its early?

You have missed nothing. After I made it I realised the big Slot was pointless. I'm useing it to grade the slates into 3 thicknesses. Thin ones go at the top. But assuming the slate didn't fit in the thin or medium slot then it goes in the thick pile anyway. ?

How did you decide on your slot widths?

just guessed really, I went through a few slates and picked a thick, thin and medium slate, then measured them with an adjustable spanner because I couldn't find my calipers, then cut out the corresponding slots on the band saw
