Anyway I decided to make one today and found it a bit inconvenient to use.

I've gone back to the caliper in one hand and parting tool in the other method.
Tiger i bought mine from the woodsmith some years ago . They are great for doing projects that have many spigot and socket conections . ie chairs , tall lamps ,bead posts ,towel rails . Any project like that and they become a great time and stress saver .
