height gauge with pen

[kenc]

I have a nice Starrett surface gauge but wanted something that would leave a nice fat felt tip pen (texter in Aus lingo) mark so brazed up this pen height gauge. Now I can make a constant height line around any thing I can plop on my bench.
The brass bit is part of a strap - like a car door check strap but for a piece of furniture. Cheap and cheerful, but it works great.

Crude, but works.
