[How-To] Scriber material

[ahazi]

I'd like to make a decent scriber since I'm always looking for something when doing layout. I recently came into some brass rod for the body but I'm at a loss of what to use for the scribe part.
I was thinking of using a 3/32" TIG electrode as they seem to be very hard, albeit perhaps a bit brittle.
Any suggestions on good material to use?

David,

Just in case you want to save some time so you can work on your other projects. These are excellent and cheap at under $11-:

Blondie hacks made a scribe using a needle. I made 2 works great.

Right, I completely forgot about that!
