Gages and Gaging Systems; Design, Construction and Use of Tools, Methods and Processes Involved

By Joseph V Woodworth

A gauge or gage is a device used to make measurements, or in order to display certain dimensional information. A wide variety of tools exist which serve such functions, ranging from simple pieces of material to large and complex pieces of machinery. This volume contains a detailed handbook on the design, construction, and use of these tools, as well as the various ways they can be used in manufacturing. Contents include: "Gage Making; Fundamentals, Practice, Development and Efficiency of the Tools", "Accurate test and Inspecting Gages, Electric and Other Measuring Machines Together with Special Indicators for Inspecting Duplicate Work", "Lathe, Planer, Surface and Universal Gages and Indicators", etc. Many vintage books like this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on the subject of metal work. First published in 1908.
