Claim:
1. A device for measuring blind holes formed through a bone, comprising: a depth gauge including a first elongated rod; a handle having an elongated body, an upper surface of the body having a peg extending therefrom to removably engage a proximal end of the first elongated rod of the depth gauge, the handle including a first slot extending into the upper surface and open to a first elongated channel extending through the handle; a first elongated shaft extending through the first elongated channel and including a first tab extending through the first slot, a range of movement of the first elongated shaft relative to the handle being limited by engagement of the first tab with walls of the first slot; a second slot extending into the upper surface of the handle and open to a second elongated channel extending through the handle; and a second elongated shaft extending through the second elongated channel and including a second tab extending through the second slot, a range of movement of the second elongated shaft relative to the handle being limited by engagement of the second tab with walls of the second slot wherein, in an operative configuration the second tab receives a proximal end of the depth gauge to control movement of an increased diameter insert at a distal end thereof.
