Hi,

I need to weld this piece at a certain angle to another piece. For that I want to have a scribe line, axial, at the very top of the part, in the current orientation (so, thinnest point facing up).

I cannot think of a good way to do that though. I might hold it in a V block and find the highest point but then I'd have to eyeball the orientation.

It doesn't have to be micron precision, but ±0.1mm would be nice.

Thanks!
