That's probably the one thing which annoys me about my Montolit 63P2, that the damn ruler gauge is on the wrong side.
Wouldn't it have been better if they'd made it symetrical? I mailed Montolit about this, but the guy who replied said "we have a pull version where it is on the left side

".
I d o n ' t w a n t a pull cutter
I wouldn't mind having to dismantle the ruler instead of just spinning it aside when I'm done.
Other than that, the Monty is a very very good cutter.
