Looking for a straight edge/scribing tool...

[TomN]

Hi Guys
I saw a tool somewhere, maybe here, that looked really handy. It looked to be a stainless steel plate, about 1-1/2” wide x 4-6” long and about 1/8” thick. It had a bevel on one long edge and a knob in the middle. Looked really useful for scribing and cutting sheet styrene.

Wondering if this is a store bought tool or home made and what it might be called.

Ring any bells with anyone?

Thanks for your help,
Tom

Yeah, I’ve got steel rulers too, but they’re kinda thin. Thinking something thicker, with the knob for stability would be pretty slick.

Thanks!
