ABSTRACT:
There is provided a method for constructing and assembling an improved measuring instrument in which the frame of the instrument is made by molding a first half of the frame and molding a mating second half of the frame. The frame halves each include working or reference surfaces utilized for measuring, and openings for receiving a vial. First and second cavities are formed in the border of each of the openings for positioning the vial so that it is aligned in a predetermined angular relationship with the working surfaces. In addition, each of the frame halves include second openings, and a recess formed in the border of the second openings and extending along the frame for receiving a retaining member for attaching a ruler to the frame of the instrument. In accordance with one form of the method, a vial is inserted in the first and second cavities of one of the molded frame halves so that the longitudinal axis of the vial is in a predetermined angular relationship with the working surfaces. The mating frame halves are then aligned relative to each other and are fastened to form a unitary structure. In another embodiment, the retaining member is molded simultaneously in the same mold with the same material as one of the molded frame halves.
