Default Cannot find cheap compass for scribing...

For scribing, a pencil and a washer will do a very good job. Pencil
in the hole in the washer, then run the edge of the washer against the
surface you want to scribe to

Vary the size of the washer to vary the offset from the scribing
surface


Sure beats the hell out of what I've been doing.

Thank you.
