Tanks for the memory...
The overriding remit of pretty well everyone who reads CMM is, in my humble op, that we would rather spend a day-and-a-half creating a tool, bracket, tester, whatever, than go to the shop for a proprietary device that fills that particular void simply by buying a thing with a lump of hard-earned cash.
Sure it’s ok to buy screwdrivers and pliers (lots of them in reality), but occasionally the task is a bit obscure, or maybe nobody thought along the same,
