Have you considered the "Airworthy Timescale Alpha" or the "Bravo",
They come from Australia.

The 'WizzPlot' from Transair, used it for PPL and CPL and general GA flying since.

Check the distance of your thumb's last section against your chart. It's an invaluable aid to guaging distances while flying.
