Has anyone used this tool? If so, how would rate it? Would you suggest it?

Darrell,

Your link takes me to the web site but not to the tool, all it says is search not found.

Sorry about that. Maybe the numbers need to be there. Not sure why they are not part of the link.

That doesn't seem to work either. Maybe you could just google micro-mark loom a line.Or, on the micro-mark page search for item 60529.

Well, you've intrigued me.

Does this work: Loom-A-Line

Never used it, but I am curious.

YES!, how did you get a link to work. For future reference.

When you need to post a link copy the address, then in your post or reply click on the [url=] button (bottom left), replace the 'http/your link' bit with the address then between the ] [ brackets type in a link word like 'here' or 'see this'

Hope that make sense.

FWIW, what I did was stumble thru Micro-Mark's page till I found the loon, highlighted the address, right clicked and saved the highlight. Then placed the copied text into the url=http://put.url.here]linkname[/url line between the = and ], then highlighted the linkname and typed in loom-a-line.
(hope the formatting makes sense)

What ever Luciano did works better than my method. Click on my link at work and get a firewall message, chick on his link and get the micro-Mark page...

Hi Darrell

Looks a bit like the tool which Heller has in their sailing ship kits. I tried that, but wasn't working for me that time.
I did it after the shrouds where installed.
If you like to work with a jig you could copy a drawing, glue it on a piece of wood and put some nails in the right position.
I think a one-for-all will not work in different scales anyway.
What scale do you work in?

Greetings from Shanghai
