Not really, it looks like a setting device that you set your caliper gauge to.
I would have thought that anything that is a genuine " Whitworth of Manchester " must be pretty rare these days.
Regards Tyrone.
I was thinking a 'gage' to set the ordinary friction calipers.
Is that what I meant to say??

That's what I was thinking. It's a sort of multi dimensioned plug gauge.
Regards Tyrone.

Ya, that is what it is. It would look really good up on my shelf should you not have a great place for it.

No, too small for a door stop and I prefer lathes for those. This would look good with this one... it is made from Brown and Sharpe reference discs. I love the mahogany bottle shaped cover.

Should say J Whitworth & co. on side of the handle.
