Where has this tool been all my life??

Holychit! A CONTOUR GAUGE?!?! I might be a little late on some things but I have never seen one before. I picked it up for $9.00 at OSH (a local hardware store)..I could have used this a thousand time last week alone! Anybody know if they make a lager one?

 

its made by General right here in the USA!

Might need to explain what a "lager one" is to us...does it measure beer or how much you've drank or what?

Eastwood had larger ones....not sure if they still do.

This ones about 6x3.. it would be cool if they made some 12 or 18 long.. You could maybe use it for body work..

 

Those are a bondo-mans best friend!! Neat for following moulding in roached out bodies! hahah!

 

I've seen one at Harbor Freight that could be connected to another to make it longer.

 

check this one out , it's made for tube. I just got a catalogue from these guys they have some good stuff pipemaster tube fitting tools

 

Eastwood DOES still have contour guages.
They have one large enough to measure the doors Qtr panels, fenders, etc.,etc,

Not to be a smart ass or nuthin'............But My DAD had one of those when I was still shittin' green

 

eastwood has been selling something like that for years,


to duplicate the bends on sheet metal bodies.


but not for 9.00 dollars, it's a bit more but very large...

at least 36 inches for the big one i think.

 

thanks guys i'll check it out!

 

My Dad also has had one for years. It is a Stanley and they call theirs a CopyCat.
