Pin Guage set

I bought my set from Enco on sale for 50.00 on a day when they offered free freight.
If you get on the MSC mailing list you get Enco as well. They have stuff on sale all the time.

I have three sets from Enco. With the three I can go from a min of.011 in the smallest set to a max of .625 in the largest. I don't plan on buying anything larger, I'll just turn a piece of ebonite to sub on the very rare occasion when I need bigger.

I bought each when they were on sale. I think about $20 for the small set and around $60 for the .500-.625. At least monthly Enco will put one of their sets on sale. Don't get in a hurry but keep checking for the sales. bob

Thanks Gents, Yes, come to think of it I have MSC's big blue book, and I get Enco mailers. Thanks again.

I don't remember where I bought mine, but I find them so valuable when making hand cut stems.

It works great. I couldn't be happier.

Yes, that is one of the sets I have and I think that is the price I paid. I also have the set that is smaller and the one that is larger. I couldn't live without them. bob
