    FINALLY!!!!! A laser-guided marking gauge
    The significant problems we encounter cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them.

    The penalty for inaccuracy is more work

    I was hoping they'd finally develop a metric hammer.
    Sharp solves all manner of problems.

    Was this new for 2019?

    They come out with so many cool products that I can’t keep up with what I already bought.

    That said, I’m thinking I would totally buy this. Everything except the prime gauges which I only occasionally would use

  6. That one is from 2017. I haven't seen a new one for this year yet.

    Paul Sellers had a pretty good video today, though:

    It would hang on the wall next to my metric Cresent wrench

    I believe Rob posted something a while back that it was just too time consuming and costly to produce a new AFD item every year, so nothing new this year. The marking gauge was a year or two back.

    Do you have a Whitworth Crescent wrench, too? Those are pretty rare.

    To be fair you do get metric shifting spanners (as we call them). They are marked out in mm and are sized according to maximum opening, be it 25mm or 40mm.
