All of the stuff I ordered came in yesterday.
For those that are interested I will show the use of each one in due time.

The one I really wanted and finally got is the ACME 29° screw thread tool gauge AKA center gauge and ACME thread pitch gauge.
It is almost impossible to grind an ACME thread cutting tool without one.
Not impossible but darn hard.

The other item I really needed is a set of Pee Dee thread measuring wires.
You use these to measuer threads you are cutting to know when to stop cutting and the threads are correct.
Sort of complected and you need a third hand.
