telling the gauge of your bar

[Jake G.]

Here's a simple way to tell the gauge of your bar:
If a quarter fits it's .063 gauge
If a penny fits it's .058 gauge
If a dime fits it's .050 gauge

 

[Guido Salvage]

But a penny, nickel and dime will fit in an .063 groove...

 

[Nitroman]

Guido, you're confusing me.

 

[a. palmer jr.]

Now you tell me that. I was trying to use gap gauges..

 

[Little Al]

Whats wrong with feeler gauges ? at least they are usually not worn. like coins could be + in my part of the world we don't have dimes, quarters, Etc.
