    This looks to me to be a repeat of:

    Tire tread depth gauge - video

    Why do I remember this? Because I bought this gauge...

    Good day,

    Yes, looks like it. You have a good memory.

    Some of my YouTube videos has been shared on HomeMadeTools by a member of HomeMadeTools (which I am very grateful for and always thanked them for sharing). I have recently been invited to be a member of HomeMadeTools and as a new member, I am posting my YouTube videos here. I have many videos on YouTube and some of them might already have been shared here. However, most of my videos will be new to the members of HomeMadeTools and I sincerely hope that they will provide good entertainment value and to be a source of ideas that can be used by the members of HomeMadeTools.

    I apologize in advance for those videos that I am posting and that are already known on HomeMadeTools.

    Kind Regards,
    Andre'

    I use one for checking the part height above the vise jaws or from the top of a parallel to the top of the vise jaw. Demonstration starts at 3:50.
