Feeler Gauges
Feeler Gauges(2 of 6)
Feeler gauges are strips of metal with varying thicknesses. They are normally used for gapping spark plugs in a car, but they can be used in the workshop to set the distance between the blade and the guide on a band saw. Slip the correct size gauge into place, then use a hex key to make adjustments.
