It must be a wire gauge - it says so!

One of our younger readers has brought in more evidence for the great tool debate.

Morgan Hennessey (nine, pictured), of Hook, brought in a wire gauge he found in his granddad's shed at the weekend.

The tool, which was bought by Morgan's great-great-granddad, has different sized notches on it, unlike the tool we pictured in the edition of April 12.

The notches on the tool brought in by William Bell appear to be the same size.

Morgan's granddad's tool also bears the inscription: 'Standard Wire Gauge'.
