Description: |
There are good ideas, there are not-so-good ideas, there are
really bad ideas, and then there's this thing.
Apparently inventors were running out of tools to combine a
marking gage with-- the utility of this piece is questionable
at best. The marking point on this piece is tiny and difficult to
get at, and the bearing surface is extremely small and
irregular. About the only redeeming values of this piece are its
humorous aspects.
