Fan Belt Measuring device...
 

Found at the Packwood, Washington Swap Meet was a Fan Belt Measuring device made our of wood.

It is 21 inches in length with an 18-inch ruler on it. It is made of wood 3/4-inch thick with a slit down the middle which has two round wooden nobs on carriage bolts to tell the length of the fan belt.

Home-made or did some company actually make this for sale?

Thanks.

Yep,

I have an old wooden one hanging on wall of my shop. I will still use it occasionally to determine the length of a belt.
