4" Sliding Bevel Required

[No Idea]

Hi All

 

I want to get myself a really nice 4" sliding bevel preferably made completely from metal.  I'm struggling to find a really decent one as Richard Kell no longer makes them and Vesper tools in Australia do not take back orders anymore.

 

If anyone knows of a 4" sliding bevel supplier could you please point me in the right direction

 

Cheers Mark

Lee Valley Tools has one (and it's not cheap):  https://www.leevalley.com/en-us/shop/tools/hand-tools/marking-and-measuring/bevels/114778-crucible-sliding-bevel?item=97K5033&utm_source=free_google_shopping&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=shopping_feed&gclid=CjwKCAjw_ISWBhBkEiwAdqxb9v8QHz5gG_a8pU9l7OqTYPrsuCX4IIFI5HNeHEE9paukkYWovQMVvhoCjTcQAvD_BwE

 

I don't have this myself though I've found Lee Valley to be a trustworthy source.

Mark, Timberline is certainly worth a call:

Exotic Hard Woods | Catalogues 2021 | Specialist Woods, Veneers, Tonewoods, Marquetry, Sundries, Tools

01732 355626, not everything is in the catalogue.

 

My go-to guys.

Wow that is nice 👍  Thanks very much for pointing me in this direction and I'll have a good look at this one.  It may be a little bit too big for model ship building but what a lovely tool it is!

Hi Bruce - yep these are my go to guys as well.  I buy all of my wood from these people and I did not know that they sold tools too.  I'll give them a ring in the morning to see if they have anything in stock or any ideas too.  Thanks again 👍
