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 smockrc@bellsouth.net.

    Thanks,

    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.
