A. Dalton's camber tool

[66andBlue]

A few years back A. Dalton described a $5 camber tool that he made (http://www.sl113.org/forums/index.php?topic=2661.0).
Unfortunately the link to his picture is dead. Anybody out there who has a copy?
The tool was copied also by Jim Villers (http://www.sl113.org/forums/index.php?topic=3903).
Jim do you have a photo of your tool that you can post?
I would like to make one and check the suspension on my car.
Thanks!

Thank you Naj!
Now comes the task to learn how to use it.

Hi Alfred,

I made one and it's easy to use.  Using a level I notched the copper with a razor blade where the plumb bob rested to mark 0 degrees.  Similarly I placed a marks at 1/8 inch intervals to act as the half degree references.

Simply place the tool against the edge of the steel wheel to read positive or negative camber on your scale.

Hi Jeff,
thanks for the encouragement. Unfortunately, it isn't just the tool but there is also a translation problem.
Where do I find a "plumb bob" .. should I talk to MacDonald customers.    For sure it cannot  be Bob P.  
Seriously, sometimes these technical phrases act like monkey wrenches for me.  So, what is it?

Hi, Alfred,

You can make one or get one from your local hardware store:

A plumb-bob or a plummet is a weight, usually with a pointed tip on the bottom, that is suspended from a string and used as a vertical reference line, or plumb-line.
The instrument has been used in since at least the time of the ancient Egypt[1] to ensure that constructions are "plumb", or vertical. It is also used in surveying to establish the nadir with respect to gravity of a point in space. They are used with a variety of instruments (including levels, theodolites, and steel tapes) to set the instrument exactly over a fixed survey marker, or to transcribe positions onto the ground for placing a marker

Hi Naj,
that thing is known to me in English as a "plummet".
Now I understand -  when a plummet is hollow and air tight then it becomes a bobber and is useful for fishing!

Alfred,

I don't know if any MacDonald's customers would know but you could ask SpoungBob about a PlumbBob.
