    Default What layout tool is this?

    Hoping someone can ID this tool (or one with the same function).
    It's a sliding stop block on a ruler for layout / scribing a distance from an edge.
    I've not been able to find such a tool via the usual sources.

    Well blimey, that was quick.

    I'd tried layout ruler , layout gauge, vernier ruler, edge gauge, plus a heap of swear words I can't write here.
