    Thanks Doug, so you only added cup? BTW I just finished my gage. I built one with a dial indicator. It was actually rather easy to build. I did find that I had to modify it to get repeatable readings though. The standard way the guys build them cause the ball on the dial indicator to get in the way and mess up the readings. I added a pointer that gets rid of the problem. If you have access to a lathe I can send you pictures of the one I made. You could probably do it with just a drill press.
    No sir I added pitch also, just edited the post. Sorry.

    I'd like to see some pics for sure. Please send them to [email protected].

    Thanks,
    Doug

      Hey Guys... I saw Eric's pitch gauge this weekend. Nicely done. It basically looks like the pic I attached, but it's larger scale and with some features that make it more user friendly. Hopefully he'll post some pics so you can see. He does nice work.

        I started a new thread titled My Pitch Gage in the Boat Building Tips section.
        It has a link to the original article from T-Mod racing and an explanation of what I changed to make it work better for me along with this link http://s104.photobucket.com/albums/m.../Pitch%20Gage/ to photos of the one I built. Thanks Mike from T-Mod Racing for the original article I based mine on.
