Nice bolt guage

Anyone know where you can get a nice one? Im looking for the ones they have at hardware stores that arent just a piece of plastic with holes drilled in them. I want the ones that actualy have threads that you can screw either a bolt or a nut on them.

Oops... gauge. That brought a few more things in the search. But still nothing but the little plastic ones.

Yeah I can find those all day. The ones Im looking for actualy have threads, a bolt of each size and a nut of each size. That way there's no mistake on your pitch.

Im thinking im gonna make one. Just go buy 1 of every nut and bolt and weld them to a piece of flat steel and labels each one.
