Hello all,

I need to engrave a degree scale on my evolving gizmo. One degree
increments will be fine. I can indicate the part on my RT, translate
the 1.25" or so to the scale location, and use the RT to locate the angles.

I am not clear on what to use to actually cut the lines. A quick search
reveals scribes, awls, pin vises, etc., but most of them look like they
are designed to be hand-held. I have scribe that I use for layout work,
but it would need to be "modified" (read destroyed) to fit on the
spindle of my mill-drill.

Any suggestions for the cutter and how to mount it in the spindle?

Thanks,

Bill
