Crankshaft Deflection Gauge - Anyone Need One?

I Tried, It Broke

Found this at the thrift store yesterday. Cost me $10. I thought it was a bore gauge, turns out it's a crankshaft deflection gauge 4" to 20" and the dial indicator takes about 6 pounds of force to deflect the needle. Any use to anyone? Weighs about 2 pounds, so a Canada Post flat rate box will be about $25 to anywhere in Canada.

Got a nice crispy calibration certificate from 1993, unfortunately I can't read it...

This arrived and I opened it today. It was really nicely wrapped inside and out. I'm very happy.
Thank you
