    Carbatec have stickon rules. I don't know if the width is right, so you might have to cut them down.

    I doubt that you can get them anymore, the CT ones are to thick to fit in the MK3 tabletop depression and still use the fence.

    What you can try is to get some cheap dressmaker tape measures ( Bunnings may still have them as well) and stick them on with doublesided carpet tape. I have used them on a number of jigs and they would fit.

    Would these be helpful? You will need to stick them down though. You will need to check whether they have them in imperial.

    Scales

    Another option, although more expensive is Kreg.

    Smile Mk3 stick on rulers

    Thanks people for the replies. I ended up going to a sewing machine shop here in Maryborough, and they had a self adhesive sticker costing $5.35. Arrived home and blow me down, it was almost the identical size to the original triton ruler. So with a bit of thinners, and time, i rubbed off the old ruler and stuck on the new. WOnderful i can now measure with out squinting lol

    Thank again
