I thought about getting a collection of different size marbles, so I could drop them thru garden hose fittings. The biggest marble that doesn't get stuck tells you the flow diameter of the fitting.
On a related note, I thought this was a clever idea:
If you have a marble and want to know what size it is and don't have a caliper
to measure it try using an open end wrench.

Similar, in a way: FormuFit offers a PVC Pipe Comparison Chart that says "The Outside Diameter of the PVC pipe is about the size of..."
The chart ranges from "...a US nickel coin" for half-inch PVC, to "...a pool ball" for 2" PVC.
Similarly inventive, at least.
