String Action Ruler Gauge Tool in/mm for Guitar Bass Mandolin Banjo

The files I received were 10-46

these are small precision files meant to file the appropriate string gauge slots in a nut, not to shape a block of material into a nut...for that a belt sander or a piece of sandpaper wrapped around a flat board will work...or any all purpose mill file.

Marty, this is what I want you to do: get an index card, and and lay your string action ruler, "Baroque-side-up" in the middle of the card. Above the middle-top of the string action ruler, write: Sting Height Scale-0.25-3.50mm. Go to the middle bottom of the string action ruler, write: String Height Scale-0.01-0.14".

Above the middle-top of the string action ruler, write: Sting Height Scale-0.25-3.50mm. Go to the middle bottom of the string action ruler, write: String Height Scale-0.01-0.14". Go to the left-side-top scale, write: Bridge/ Saddle Slot/Depth Scale (inch). Go down, to the left-side-bottom scale, write: Scale For Nuts, Saddles And PolePieces (inch). Go to the right-side-top scale, write: Scale For Nuts, Saddles And PolePieces (mm). Go down, to the right-side bottom scale, write: Bridge/Saddle Slot/Depth Scale (mm). Marty, get a new index card and lay the string action ruler in the middle of it face-side-down. You should be able to read "String Action At 12th Fret". Go to the middle-top, write: 75mm Scale. Go to the middle bottom, write 3" Scale. You should see two columns, 1st string and 6th string. Your string action (height) should be close to that at the 12th Fret ( 1st & 6th strings). Write that down, & try it out for yourself. Get someone to help you if you need to. Save the index cards, they will be your instructions. Use a steel ruler too. Tripp Gazzer see less
