Baller sunvalleylaw Posted July 1, 2012 Baller Share Posted July 1, 2012 Will need 8" version. I don't want to spend $75 if possible. Looks like a couple are on Amazon including a Neiko for more like 25 or 30. I did not find any locally in our hardware stores other than too small.

Baller A_B Posted July 2, 2012 Baller Share Posted July 2, 2012 The slot caliper is probably the best option out there today. Low budget-wise, go to any tool shop, harbor freight, etc., and there are many $30 calpers out there. Most fin lengths are given in tip measurements now, so tips are tips, no matter how much they cost, depth is pretty hard to mess up with any caliper, and the dft is a crap shoot anyway unless you have the slot caliper, but once you get your first measurements, it is all relative and your cheapie caliper will measure your changes just fine. Buy a set of wing gauges with the change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
