Quick & Easy way to draw and get dimensions of an existing part

Quick and easy way to draw and get dimensions for duplicating or producing new parts with out CAD. The graph sheet in this case is with 1mm resolution. 

Place the part on the graph sheet and trace it along. 

Sheet metal gauge size chart

Gauge (or gage) sizes are numbers that indicate the thickness of a piece of sheet metal, with a higher number referring to a thinner sheet. The equivalent thicknesses differ for each gauge size standard, which were developed based on the weight of the sheet for a given material. The Manufacturers' Standard Gage provides the thicknesses for standard steel, galvanized steel, and stainless steel. The chart below can be used to determine the equivalent sheet thickness, in inches or millimeters, for a gauge number from the selected gauge size standard. The weight per unit area of the sheet can also be seen in pounds per square foot and kilograms per square meter.
