I ginned up some python to generate an SVG file for a bevel setting gauge[0]. The code is ugly, and the SVG file doesn't render correctly except in a browser and Corel Draw, and that's ok, because that's all I need it to do to drive the laser cutter.
I'll throw it up on GitHub under WTFPL if I ever get an afternoon to comment it and write a readme.md for the benefit of anybody misfortunate enough to stumble across it in the future.
I might also add the option to do a lefty or righty gauge. It's identical in outcome, but I could see it being more ergonomic.

I'd have probably bought one if they hadn't mentioned lasering them. Since I have access to a laser, I figured why not brush off the old programming skills. For the record, I'd have come out ahead buying one.
