I finally got tired of the pin type gauges and decided to make one. Wasn't sure of the shape because I like to hold the beam not body, and I don't like holding work off the edge of the bench to mark lines. Then I saw one that I liked and I copied it. Forget the name. And I couldn't find a suitable blade until I found this 6 dollar marking knife on Amazon. Bought 2 and the steel turns out to pretty hard. I think the real one will be cherry - not sure yet. Or maybe the proto will get used for the next many years.
