I bought one on ebay I am an artist to cut boards for my work I do not have a manual for it Can anyone help please It looks old I have bought new blades It seems to cut ok but I cannot work out the measuring method It has a round plastic disk on the end of a short measure I do not work out how to us...

Thanks for your prompt reply I will look into it I have a long way to go to reach a decent standard .Only working for my own work and local friends who bare also artists Owen
