Feeler Gauges

Author: cujo

Besides the store bought kind of feeler gauge material does anyone use anything else? And any ideas on what the advantages and disadvantages would be with different material.
An old cassette tape and ciggarette paper is what I use for 2 different sizes. I also tried stretching a thin plastic bag to make smaller ones but it didnt seem to work well.
Glued tapered bits to a long, flimsy flat spring and for more precise measurements I have bits glued to the thinnest guitar string.
Anyone have other ideas for this kind work. Would be interesting.
