Feeler Gauge Basics - simple go/no-go tool

[@calebm.5698]

I’ve been going through watching all of your videos and I have to say that I’m totally addicted. I was quite surprised to see that I wasn’t watching a channel with 100k subs or more, as all of the videos are super high quality and well made. Keep up the good work! I think this channel is going places.

Thank you so much! This comment absolutely made my day.

@@JustToolBasics Your video came up on my recommend... When I checked the comments I thought I had an issue with my internet because there was only 1 comment. The guy above me said it perfectly, I couldn't believe how few comments and likes these videos have, nice work!

so what about the go no go part?

[@AnnemarieStanton]

I have to use theas on the guitar kneck !!in-between the string and the surface when the string is pressed down on the ends of each side of the kneck to measure what is called kneck relief !...if the kneck is bowed I can us a hex key and straitened it up using the feeler gauge as referance .

Nice video. But you left out combining the gauges to get a thickness not includ ed in the set. For instance if you wanted to measure 0.1 inches you combine the point .035 + .032 + .018+ .015 gauges

Hi can this be used in measuring the air gap length of a transformer?

[@JustToolBasics]

Normally transformer air gaps are measured via inductance measurement, not a physical probe.

@@JustToolBasics please can you explain further

Then, sure, you could use a feeler gauge if you can access the air gap...but most "air" gaps actually have something placed between the two sides of the transformer (plastic, paper, wood, etc), so accessing it directly isn't an option in those cases. Also, importantly, the physical air gap length doesn't tell you much without knowing the number of windings, etc.

Your too slow

Too much yapping. Get to the point.
