The rollers on my old Marrs and Emmons are "V" shaped.
The rollers on my Mullen are "U" shaped.
None of them are gauged.

| Farris there is no need to grind tools or use a comparator to machine "V" or "Radius" grooves in gauged nut rollers with CNC machines. I machine complete guitars and never measure a part anymore. It holds .0004" of an inch. Dave |
