Pocket FB (Fat boy) and SB (Skinny Boy) Scribers

Overview of the FB and SB Pocket Scribers

The pocket FB and SB Scribers are possibly the most compact scribing tools on the market.

They are great scribers for “on the go” fitters already carrying a tool belt full of tools. They are so compact that they will reach awkward spots on site where other scribers may struggle. 

The scribing tool (either pencil or marking wheel holder) is held in place with a grub screw accessed from underneath the body. 

An allen key is housed permanently on the scriber so you aren’t hunting for it. You can remove the allen key whilst using the scriber if you prefer.

Apart from the marking tool holder being different the rest of the pocket scriber is a scaled down version of the FB and SB scribers. 

The bolt on base plate is available for the pocket scribers.

The plate is made out of delrin which is less likely to mark finished surfaces (paint etc).

Although the pocket scribers base is 14mm shorter than the other scribers in the range the hole pattern is the same so you can fit attachments.

The pencil needs to stick out 7mm more from the body to account for the shortened base.

Here the profile attachment is fitted to a pocket SB Scriber.
