I've owned this wonderful old brass and wood caliper for decades.
The engraved lines on part of the scale are almost worn off.
I'd like to restore the lines, but I'm not sure how to go about it.
I could use a very small ball burr in my mill, or a graver or lathe tool by hand.
I have a carbide scribe, but I don't think I can match the other lines with it.
Any suggestions?
