Boatbuilder's Brass Bevel Gauge

I made this small brass bevel gauge out of brass plate that I purchased from Lowes. Sanded up to 1000 grit, then polished on buffing wheel with green compound. Used brass hardware and deformed end of screw slightly so nut won't come off when loosened.

The brass plate from Lowes is found in the doorknob aisle. It is a door push plate I think
