The Other Measuring Tools

[TomG]

A few more items from deep in the tool box:

Here's a Lufkin #199 Universal Test Indicator. It's the ultimate in simplicity and ruggedness. I have an older one that I use, this one's brand new and for show only.




Here is Lufkin's version of the automatic center punch. The Starrett equivalent actually has a better feel and is slightly more compact.




This is a Lufkin inside micrometer set. It'll measure I.D's from 1" to 12". It's easier to use on larger diameters than small ones.




Lufkin made some very nice dial test indicators and this is one of them. It's incredibly compact and the long stylus makes it easy to reach into tight spaces. I bought this one new when I started college.




This is a planer gage that I made in college. It would be really handy for setting the tool height on a planer if only I had one. It doesn't get out much.
