Why have we not received this photoguide from Zenith USA? Has anyone found a source for the Burroughs guage other than Spruce?

It's in the builders area of the US Zenith site now.

The Wick's cable tension gauge won't work for a Zodiac. This gauge for 1/8" cable has a bottom end of 100 pounds. The Zodiac cables are from 22 to 40 pounds.

The problem with the Wicks gauge is its range:

"Ranges 3/32: 70-300lbs, 1/8: 100-500 lbs. 5/32: 140-800 lbs."
