Sureline marking gauge

[David C]

Has anyone bought one of these please?

If so how well was it made?

I can't get onto their website, which is frustrating as I am writing an article on gauges for F&C.

Happy Christmas,

David,

I can't see them either following your link, so what about a little description or maybe a pic or something to google with?

Merry Christmas,

Marc who found a minute of relaxing inbetween cooking for the family

David,

apparently we have already had a discussion about this one year ago.

Thanks Bernhard,

Very comprehensive review there by Alf.

Also splendid mechanism by Ian Dalziel.

However it does not help me with the question of whether Sureline are still functioning as their website appears to be down.
Since no one appears to have bought one perhaps they gave up?

best wishes,
David

Thanks chaps,

Sureline have not responded so must assume defunct.

Wish I had bought one when first seen.

The other knock off is sort of OK but surprisingly nasty as well.

The ogee curve where they have saved a lot of brass machining is very un ergonomic.
