It's used to measure the tip opening of mouthpieces. It does use a dial indicator that I purchase from Harbor Freight, but that's all. The rest of the tool I make. It's $29.00 for members of this group, shipped within the US. That is going to change to $40.00 plus shipping really soon, though. So I suggest you order now.

It doesn't mount on the mouthpiece, you set the mouthpiece against the stop on the plate, and read the tip opening on the gauge. Theoretically you could measure a tip opening up to 1.00", but I really don't think that will be necessary. I have left the stop on the plate about 1/2" high so you can measure basically any opening you want with ease. You can adjust how much of the gauge is exposed by a collar on the gauge shaft that has a set screw. I'll post a picture with instructions later this weekend. I have enough material at this point for about 35 units.
