Product Details
6" Contour Gauge by General Tools®. Profile Gauge, Shape Duplicator, 6-Inch (152mm), Stainless Steel Pins, Precisely Copy Irregular Shapes For Perfect Fit and Easy Cutting. 6" Contour Gauge can duplicate any shape instantly. This profile gauge creates an instant template for curved and odd shaped profiles simply and easily. Never transfer profiles to paper or cardboard again. The contour gauge makes measuring and cutting easy. Reminiscent of a hair comb, the tool-also known as a profile comb-features a row of long, thin, moveable teeth and a perpendicular housing that holds them in place as they take an impression of the surface. It is ideal for measuring moldings for reproduction, duplicating spindles on the lathe, fitting flooring around moldings, copying curves and a variety of other contour matching jobs around the home and shop. It fits around most common pipes and round columns and allows you to easily copy shapes to tile, laminate, engineered wood, solid wood and vinyl flooring to precisely cut flooring to match objects.
