I made this little bevel about 55 years ago when I started working at North Arm Boat Works in New Westminster B.C. It lived in my right back pocket and was used many times a day for years. I still have it and I still use it. Every now and then it gets a little loose and I give it a quarter turn on the nut. Then it’s good for a few more years.

The early bird gets the worm but its the second mouse that gets the cheese.
