I asked some time ago about a supplier of Acme thread gauges but got no feedback. A few days ago someone did send me an E mail but I dont know where it went. I think he said he made them and other gauges but made no mention of price.

Would still like to hear from him,although I have one on the way from China.

That was John Stevenson who mentioned it in a thread.

Rick & Michael, read the link back to the other thread and you will see JS said he had ACME in stock and also did Trap ones.

"If you had posted here you wanted one I could have sold you one as I still have stock from when Ower Gert {TM} used to sell them and make in the UK to boot.

Also have gauges for trapezoid thread that I believe no one else does"

Jason,

I think Rick was only trying to help Larry not get misled

… That would certainly have been my intention.
