Abstract

A gauge positioner used for measuring the edge portion of the surface of a workpiece held on a measuring fixture is disclosed. The positioner has a lip which rests upon the corner of the measuring fixture under the workpiece edge. The upper portion of the positioner overhangs, and is spaced above, the lip. A hole is formed through the upper portion of the positioner for receiving the barrel of a measuring gauge and positioning the tip of the gauge in measuring contact with the workpiece.
