For a flexible (literally) and transparent pica/point/mm/ tool, the Galaxy Gauge is a very inexpensive choice. The company is disconcertingly retro (the website looks like it was designed in the 90s and hasn’t seen much change since), but the products are handy indeed. When you need to measure the width of a label that’s firmly affixed to a round surface, like a bottle, there’s nothing like it.

The largest size of the eponymous gauges has a cheat sheet for proofreader’s marks, serif and sans serif type gauges, a screen density chart and screen finder, decimal-to-fraction converter, rule and bullet size charts, a circles and corners gauge, a protractor and a leading gauge. I have all of them.
