Where can I find.............

[coomarlin]

The fastener department at Lowes had these boards mounted on the racks that have numorous bolts and bolt holes that you can use to find thread sizes.

Anyone know where I can buy something like this? I've tried googling them but not really sure what to search for.

Thanks. I appreciate the reply. However, I already have the flat gauges like those in the first site you linked.

I'm looking more for one that has actual threaded holes and threaded studs that I can actually take a bolt and thread onto a stud (or visa versa). I want to mount one in the back of a contractors box truck.

Might want to ask the manager at Lowes where they got it. It's very possible they just got a piece of metal and used various taps that they probably stock to make the holes.

My dad has a tap and die set, so I tend to just use those to see what fits, but it's not necessarily the most efficient method That and I live a couple states away. Maybe I should get my own, now that I think about it.

Not an option to just use a vernier to measure the diameter and thread pitch?
