ABSTRACT:
A simple, rugged, and conveniently front-adjustable gage stop having a gage finger capable of presenting a gage face in any of several angular orientations is disclosed. The gage stop comprises a gage finger adjustably and rotatably connected to a finger support which is in turn pivotally connected to a mounting member. In operation, a workpiece is butted against the gage face with the gage stop resting in a horizontal orientation, and some operation is performed on the workpiece. If this operation results in an upward force being applied to the gage stop, the stop swings upward in response, to a limiting position in which the center of gravity of the finger support/gage finger combination is forward of the pivot axis, and then returns by gravity to a horizontal position.
