    He had an unusual tool on the table which I had not seen before. He said it was a Tuttle Taper Taker!

    His group of rod makers likes to take measurements of other rods so they can try to duplicate or improve upon them.
    The device is connected to a RS232 port which feeds into some software he wrote. It is accurate to 1/1000th of an inch.
    It can read the diameter at many different points along the rod.
    A very cool tool!Name:  20200808_132659.jpg
