There are three ways to tell whether gaffs are sharpened properly. Step 1 : Three ways to maintain climbers : 1. 1. Gauging. This method checks the gaff's length, width, and thickness and the profile of its point.... 1. 2. Plane test. This method may be used with the gauge or independently if the gaffs are sharpened by machine. The test is made by using a soft board to tell whether proper sharpness has been reached. Place the climber with the gaff side down and parallel to the board without applying downward pressure above the gaff. Push the climber along the board. If the gaff is properly contoured and sharpened, it will dig into the wood and hold within approximately one inch. If the climber continues to glide along the board for more than one inch, it needs more honing. 1. 3. Pole cutout. After the climbers have been machine sharpened or gauged(and as often as required thereafter), the gaffs may be tested on a pole. 1, record 10, English, - plane%20test

The gauge length or jaw spacing for cotton fiber bundle strength tests was a matter of speculation and research as early as 1926. At this time, the practice was to put the jaws in contact with each other, leaving no length of cotton fibers in a space; this was called a "zero gauge test". Both the Chandler Round Bundle test and the Pressley test adopted the zero gauge test. 3, record 11, English, - Pressley%20test
