Ha!

Stefan Trethhan you are so correct!

I just went to the drawer in my worktable to fetch my carbide scribe and
it is not there anymore!
And I just used it a few weeks ago. Funny how those kinds of things can
appear and disappear
at will.

I have a bunch of snapped-off carbide drill bits, and I will try to
mount one of them in a little
pin vise (used for miniature drill bits) and see if it works as nice as
my missing carbide
scribe.

A diamond scribe would probably be better, but they cost a bit more than
the few bucks
I paid for the carbide scribe.
