"What's It" Basic Rules Reminder

For a full run down on this project and rules please go to: The Patriot Woodworker and MWTCA "What's It" project

• Only Patriot Woodworker Members are eligible to participate and receive the award.
• The MWTCA only accepts a verified source to support your answer, so one should be submitted with your answer, such as a patent, catalog entry, tool book reference, or a respectable website on the subject. Do not let these requirements prevent you from having fun and submitting educated answers on the subject without verification, we can worry about references later. All answers are welcome, as well as healthy debates regarding "What's It".
• If a verified and referenced answer is not arrived at by the end of each month's "What's It" project, a random draw will be performed for a "One Year MWTCA Club Membership".
• Only Patriot Woodworker's who participate in this "What's It" topic will be included in the random draw.

Powerflo makes pumps so I think this is to measure tolerances on pumps.

Nah, he’s old.  He used this stuff in his youth. 😀

I do spend a lot of time on these if necessary.  This one came pretty quick.

Well done @HandyDan and in record time too. I suppose the donuts are gone by now?

Well, first priority this trip was our sons graduation from Army basic training, we got to see him last Wed for family day and then Thur for his graduation, then on Fri we drove him up to VA for his AIT school

That being said, of course we looked at a few homes and neighborhoods while we were there! In between mama in the ER for pneumonia and me feeling like crud too, it was very hectic Dan, but we pulled it all off with a smile and show of support for our son!
