This is what I did for you our kids. Used a bull nose but in a router for the engraving. The graduations were done with a straightedge while the numbers were freehanded over pencil lines.

I then spray painted it black and sanded off the paint from the flat surfaces, leaving it paint in the engraving troughs.

Their heights are simply penciled on.

We're pretty pleased with it. It looks nice and doesn't feel out of place.

Give CopyQ a try. Open source, cross platform clipboard manager with tons of features.

One example option is being able to only ever paste plain text. It also has lots of programming hooks, I have a few for doing things like converting a line-feed delimited list into one delimited by commas and quoting the values.

We have the Brother HL-L3230CDW and are happy with it. Works fine with inexpensive toner cartridges from Amazon.

There's a groove on the insides of the walls that the plywood fits into.

Plain wood glue for the corners but the bottom is not glued in order to let the sides move with humidity changes.

Our toddler messing with this glass scale was the inspiration! I bet an off the shelf letter holder would work.
