I've got some woodcraft gift cards burning a hole in my pocket and I need a new marking gauge for laying out mortises. Below are the options I'm considering. I want to go as cheap as possible for a quality tool that I won't be complaining about in a few years.
Crown marking and mortising - $32

Veritas dual wheel gauge - $60

Bora marking and mortising gauge:

I have also been considering getting a wheel marking gauge - the pin gauge I have wanders badly when marking with the grain. The Woodcraft wheel marking gauge is $15.
