I have made several blacksmith's hook rules by cutting the graduations using the cross feed manually on my #2 B&S mill, I hold the tool in a fly cutter holder in the horizontal spindle, with the holder braced against the overarm to prevent rotation, each 1/16" line is cut with a a tool approximately a 15 degree included angle up to a series of limit lines scratched lengthwise on the blank; spacing of the lines is done with a B&S rack gear tooth spacing attachment.
